Etymology

Noun

Tets (plural Tets)

  1. (UK, informal) A bottle or serving of Tetley's beer.
    • 1990 October 6, Osman, “Re: The North - South Divide”, in free.uk.pubs[1] (Usenet):
      A good pint of Tetleys pulled through the auto vac system, which meant pulling three or four pints to create a single pint, was second to none. Outside Yorkshire, and going south, this system was used infrequently and, consequently, a pint of Tets served elsewhere would be very ordinary.
