    I can’t currently drink but I’ve never seen this at Oakwell, from what I read it was mega expensive but I’d like to try it should it be on sale at a reasonable price.

    They had it on when they were sponsors. Don’t think they do anymore. I had some when they were giving it out free. It was vile.

    But don’t ever class me as Gen Z I hate that term, it just makes me think of Love Island, kids with blue hair and them that invented the 72 sexes ( there are only 2).

    I thought the freebie handed out at Oakwell was pretty nice.

    Now probably our most high profile and richest ever sponsor.

    Lyons Cakes..? They weren't 'exceedingly good' but everyone had heard of Lyons.

    ED.. just read the second bit about who they are.. excellent work by whoever got those on board.. would be nice if JAQ had a hand in this.. it may shut up the hard of thinking, at least for five minutes anyway

    'Mindful consumption', never heard that phrase before, but like it.

    I'm not totally tee-total, but I do go long spells with zero alcohol. I'm on holiday now, so have had a few beers and cocktails, but before that I'd had one, yes one, pint since NYE. I used to be a regular drinker, bingeing on a weekend mostly, but changed my outlook towards alcohol about 5yrs ago. Feel so much better for it.

    Never felt the need to drink non-alcoholic beers though, I can go without beer, prefer a nice cold soft drink.

    I liked it when I tried it and it was nice that you could actually take it to your seat with being non alcoholic.

    As a beer drinker I don't give a 'Tinker's cuss' on the quality of Athletic. It's good that we have got a relatively high profile shirt sponsor on board. It's a refreshing change from the plethora of betting firms who are shirt sponsors. Well done to the club's marketing.

    Trying the same, difficult not to drink with the culture and circles I'm in. I only have spells where l go a few weeks but trying to go down the route of drinking only on special occasions. Me and the missus normally buy 5 bottles of wine for a weekend Fri - Sun and then drink nothing Mon - Thurs. Broke the cycle for July so I'll see how far l go - a drink on Sunday and I'm on holiday on 26th onwards.
