Tennent's Sweetheart Stout

[fretlessman71]

Can anyone get this (http://beeradvocate.com/beer/rate_results/53/12573/) beer anywhere? I'd love to find it - can or bottle....

This beer used to be widely available here in the states. I remember the Tennant's Girls series of cans. Especially the Penny series of 5.

But no longer? I'd love to see what a 2% ABV stout was like without having to brew my own just yet....

Actually the cans were Tennant's Lager. :(

These were out in the 70s.

What are they worth, do you think?

Mind you, I didn't want the cans for the packaging.. I wanted them for the Sweetheart Stout inside! ;)

I'm thinking they are not worth too much. They were common. There were older sets from the 1960s that might be worth something.

Maybe you can look for the cans of Sweetheart Stout when you're in England in May, eh? :)

Just a quick little bump here... want to make sure this thread doesn't get lost in the shuffle with everyone coming home from work soon! (I'm about to head OFF to work in a few...)

Good luck with your search. I'm wondering if this beer is even still made.
