FAO Desperado Lovers

Hi guys,

I LOVE Desperado's Tequila beer, but it's not exactly cheap if you drink a lot of it !

I've found a few alternatives for your consideration - if you know of any others, post them up please !!!

Desperado's - £1.50 per bottle (£1 per bottle if bought in a crate of 24 from Costco) - 5.9% ABV

Amigo's - £1 per bottle (4 for £4 from Morrisons) - 6% ABV

Salito's - 79p per bottle (B&M - going to stock up tomorrow - tastes very very similar to the above, but half the price) - 5.5% ABV

    So buying the original stuff by the crate is the best option then.

    The alternatives offer different taste experiences but based upon the "original" product.

    Thread is to discuss alternatives.

    highguyuk, if you going to france they sell all types desperadoes by the bucket load and lots of very good supermarket alternatives (the ones list here i think taste terrible). If you really love the stuff they even sell 5L kegs in the supermarkets.

    anyone tried AbelScot? beer mixed with whisky? quite sweet tasting - tastes a little like the Innis and Gunn beers.
