    'A Double Diamond works wonders...so drink one today!' was one of the big 4 back in the day very popular in the east midlands

    I remember going through London on the coach with my grandparent's back in the mid sixties. What stood out to me even as a school boy was that Ind Coope pubs were on every corner almost. If it wasn’t Ind Coope it was Courage. My mates dad back in Lincolnshire said it was called Courage because you needed courage to drink flat Southern beer.
    At Christmas my father had a few cans in mainly for guests as he wasn’t a drinker, It would be late sixties. In amongst the beer at the back of the under stairs cupboard was a few cans of Double Diamond. On the TV Double Diamond were running adverts up to Christmas and as a boy I was transfixed and couldn't wait to try it. Should I risk opening one, dare I? My chance come when my parent’s went out to a Christmas dinner and dance. I took one of the DD cans and opened it, it was my first taste of beer without lemonade in it, I was probably 13 or 14. I liked it so much it spurred me on to try and buy some beer from an off licence attached to a local pub the Star Inn. The served you through a hatch in the entrance corridor and I don’t think they looked too closely at who was buying. I paid my money, less than two schillings, took my change and beer and left.
    So began a long love affair with beer. You can still get draft Double Diamond in a pub in Plymouth, its from a small local micro brewery and made to the old recipe. I like it very nice. As people used to say it was rubbish back in the day is that a comment on how far our ales have fallen or was it never really that bad. There was a lot of North, South prejudice back then.

    I grew up in Burton upon Trent, Ind Coope was at the end of my street, Bass was opposite my house( it was owned by Bass who my Dad worked for) . Only time I remember drinking anything from then was when I had a private tour with the finance director.
    I'd love to try Double Diamond now.

    From Beer And Brewing: "Ind Coope & Sons began in 1709 when George Cardon opened a small brewery behind the Star Inn in the market town of Romford, Essex, close to the border with London. In 1799 the business was bought by Edward Ind and a bigger brewery was built. Octavius Coope and George Coope joined the company in 1845, which was renamed Ind Coope & Sons in 1886. The brewery produced mainly mild ale, the most popular type of beer in the greater London area, but the development of pale ale in Burton-on-Trent encouraged Ind Coope to open a brewery there in 1856. See burton-on-trent. Ind Coope was the first southern brewer to do so and was later joined in Burton by such large London brewers as Charrington and Truman."

    When I was in the forces, Ind Coope Double Diamond was sold in some NAAFIs. I was only 18 so thought it was ok 😀 I also remember Ind Coope Long Life beer in tins from the wine shop.

    When joined Ansells in Birmingham in 1989 (part of Allied Breweries) Ind Coope was still around, remember Burton Ale, but it soon died a death as was the trend then with smaller regional ale brands.

    Yes of course I remember Ind Coope - how could one forget the purveyors of Double Diamond - which, apart from Red Barrel - was one of the nastiest beers ever made!! They were tied up with Friary Meux - who tried to bring out a proper real ale in the CAMRA era. That was undrinkable too! I the South East, Kent and Sussex their pubs were all too prevalent sadly. Were they not Allied Breweries who also ruined Mitchell and Butler in the midlands?

      I used to go out with Mates when I started drinking, we would down around four pints of Lager, then when I got into bed the room would start spinning and I would be sick. My mother said I should change my drink. I did listen to her and decided to change to Double Diamond I remembered my dad having the odd pint before he died! Drank four pints of "DD" no trouble when I got home straight to sleep. That became my regular drink for a while!

    I remember the name Ind Coope! I know they made a decent brown ale (can't recall the name) but were also responsible for Double Diamond ("works wonders") which wasn't great.

    Back in my railways days our Top manager was a big drinker of Marstons Pedigree. when I got a office job, planning, I very often had to use a computer. Computers needed passwords however it turned out all the office passwords were Pedigree the managers favourite drink! Forty years ago so do you think they may have changed them?

    Remember Ind Coope beers in my local. Brown and mild was usually draught mild and a bottle of brown ale, invariable you ended up with more than a pint as the mild was poured first in a pint glass to usually just over half way.

    Haven't heard of Ind Coope in years, it was one of the first beers I started to drink regulary Ind Coope ' Long Life' - my tastes have changed since then. Brings back great memories of the mid 70s, long stoned summer evenings 'down the pub' listerning to Jefferson Airplane, Jimi Hendrix and the Stones on the juke box, yeah I'll have another pint.

    • @andrewhead6267

      Long Life was my take home beef of choice in the early 1980s. Was always decent priced, and to my mind was pretty good drinking too.

    • @andrewhead6267
      @andrewhead6267 3 месяца назад

      Ind Coope bought out our towns local brewery (Benskins) closing down the brewery by 1973. When I started visiting pubs, we would avoid their houses and seek out the Courage, Greene King or Truman’s pubs.

      @@andrewhead6267 Yes I live in Derbyshire six miles from the Nottingham shire border. All our towns pubs were Nottinghamshire pubs, Home ales, Kimberley Ale, Shipstones nobody liked the beer but they sold loads of the stuff! and Mansfield Ale. Sadly they have now all gone!

    Up till the early 90's I worked in Derby at the Carriage works a regular trip was to one of the Burton Breweries We did two of each of the big ones Ind Coope and Bass. I remember going to Ind Coope and everyone wanted a pint of the new Real Ale I think was called County They only had two barrels of the stuff available and it was on a hand pump with a young girl doing her best to serve 30 or more drinkers watching the clock has we hd half an hour free drinking! The Old lad in charge said would anyone like some other drink? I said Yes please can I have a pint of Double Diamond! One of my fellow worker said hark at Parker, Counties available and he wants Double Diamond in a rather nasty tone! The man in charge said Double Diamond beer made this company the place it is today quoting the sales figures and how many pints they have sold and are still selling he then told my fellow worker to leave me alone or he would not serve him! Many of my friends also drank Bass we visited their brewery as well they put on a beautiful buffet! and again thirty minutes free drinking. Bass Worthington now Molson Coors!

    Asking for a 3rd time Simon, Please do a revisit of 6.0% Leffe as they've improved the beer alot. Taste, aroma, and quality. Not the first load of 6.0% crap they put out at first was awful as we all know so Leffe Blonde is back!!😅😅

    You need to edit this video and say that you've named the beer Gordon. Then you could shout Gordon's alive when you opened it.
