I've heard of Vimto but what the hell is Bene Hot??? Sounds like some southern fairy drink you probably get in London

Never had it with Vimto but Bene and Brandy is superlative - a real man's drink - oooooh!

Let's not turn Bene into an alcopop for the woke generation, drink it with hot water or get out of the Miners and take your deely boppers with you.

Vimto? Bene is pretty sweet on its own.
No additions needed really

The Miners started doing Bene Bombs a few years ago.

A hot vimto at HT, when playing, was cracking but keep it away from Bene.

Vimto is a true Northern drink combining it with hot water and Bene works as a cure.
It's sad when a few feel the need to get abusive when offered advice.

It’s like Bene Hill but the sexy girls running around don’t wear bikinis.

like the idea of it as a lemsip.
My great grandads brother used to drink B&B after a meal said it made sure it stayed down, said he learnt to drink it if france when they were having day off from the trenches (B&B was Brandy and Bene) not sure if it did make things stay down as when ever he went in a pub in the 60s he would drink 4 or5 of these along side 2 pints of guinness .

Yes. You've got to be careful.

It's been known to have the opposite effect on the contents of my stomach on occasion. Mayhap it's a quantity issue with the medicinal beverage?

Rowls your not wrong, Ive drunk sufficent quantitys to sink a ship and some times have felt that i may have leant over the side too. Ive also discovered that if you drink large quantitys of Guiness in Ireland you develop a stange walk with feet standing wider and moving with more of a rolling gate than normal walikng

Alistair Campbell is very much teetotal these days. He may / may not have drank bene 'n' vimto but if he did, he doesn't anymore.
