During some home renovations I discovered a secret stash of some interesting old beer mats whilst clearing out the loft.
I’ve no idea how long they’d been up there, but I’ve decided to keep them and add to the fledgling collection.
Tegestology is defined as the practise of collection beer mats, so perhaps I’ll become a true tegestologist, in time.
Here’s a few interesting beer mats from the collection:
-
- Ind Coope’s Burton Ale
-
- Ansells Bitter. Still made by JW Lees.
-
- Ace of Clubs – Special Ale
-
- Unusual Heineken Beer Mat
-
- Deverish Cornish Best Bitter
-
- Trophy Bitter
-
- Strongarm – Strong Northern Ale
-
- Unusual to see a Barley Wine in a beer mat
-
- Tetley Mild
-
- Old Heineken Beer Mat
-
- This Charrington IPA is even called a bitter
-
- Cameson’s Best Bitter
-
- Younger’s IPA
-
- Gales was bought by Fuller’s
-
- Stones Best Bitter
-
- Harvey’s in Lewes
-
- William Yonuger’s Scotch Bitter
-
- King & Barnes was acquired by Hall & Woodhouse (Badger)
-
- Everything was called a bitter back in the day..
