====== Tennent's Lager ======

Tennents Caledonian brewery are responsible for the most culturally significant beers of Scotland, including but not limited to the widely loved Vitamin T itself, Tennent's Lager and the well regarded in [[https://www.glasgowlive.co.uk/news/history/why-italy-loves-tennents-super-15945595|Italy]] Tennent's Super. 

Tennent's Lager was first brewed by a 22 year old Hugh Tennent Tennent at Wellpark Brewery, Glasgow in 1885 having been inspired by his earlier travels in Bavaria and interest in Pilsener. Hugh Tennent Tennent was, of course, the nephew of Hugh Tennent, who unfortunately died before Hugh Tennent Tennent first brewed his Tennent's lager. 

Tennent's brewery was founded in 1740 by Hugh Tennent at the Drygate in Glasgow, Scotland where it still stands to this day. It was passed to Hugh Tennent upon the death of Hugh Tennent, and eventually ended up under the control of Hugh Tennent Tennent, the founding Hugh's great-great-grandson after some years. It has been speculated but is not proven that at one point there may have been a rental agreement between Hugh Tennent and Hugh Tennent Tennent, thus the culturally huge Tennent's Lager was brewed at Tennent's Brewery by Hugh Tennent's tenant Hugh Tennent Tennent.

Regardless of the family tree, Vitamin T is a force to be reckoned with, imitated the world over but never matched.
