An ultimate ranking of every coloured shit in Stone Roses, from worst to best
Ever wondered how many shits you can actually get in Stone Roses?
Stone Roses is one of the most popular bars for students in York, especially with their jukebox and treble deals. However, there is nothing more famous than their ranges of different colour shits. In only recently learnt that there are six different colours, So we decided that we would give you an official ranking:
6. Energy
Starting with my least favourite, there were no surprises about what the energy shit contained. After one sip I was immediately hit with the overwhelming taste of Red Bull. Unfortunately, drinking energy shit reminded me a little bit too much of studying for A Levels, with Red Bull being what got me through revising for psychology. It personally wouldn’t be my first choice of drink on a night out, but definitely one for the energy drink fans in York.
5. Iron
Next on the list was the iron shit, which, unsurprisingly, mainly just tastes of Iron Bru. It was definitely drinkable, and seemed to taste better the more I drank of it, but also wouldn’t be my first choice. But if you’re looking for a triple that barely tastes of alcohol, this could be a good shout.
4. Red
Next up was the red shit and this is also a solid choice. But with Vimto as a mixer, it makes it very easy to taste the alcohol. Whether that is a pro or a con is up to you, but personally, it makes it just an okay choice for me – perfectly nice, but definitely not a favourite.
3. Pink

Third in our ranking, we have the new addition to the Stone Roses menu: pink shit. It tastes very very sweet, and even after a lot of discussion, none of us could work out what was in it. But of the new drinks I tried on the night, this was definitely my favourite and may even become a regular feature.
2. Blue
In second place we have the first drink I ever tried at Stone Roses, and a staple of the York freshers experience. It’s the iconic blue shit. Even after trying all of the other choices, this was still up there in the top two. You can’t go wrong.
1. Green
In my humble opinion, the GOAT of the shits at Stone Roses, and the best choice. Not quite as sweet as the blue shit, but also sweet enough that you can’t taste the three shots, this has been my go-to since I found out there was more on offer than just blue.
After trying and ranking all of the different colours, I will definitely be adding pink shit as a drink of choice the next time I’m in Stone Roses, maybe even red too. Of course, take these rankings with a pinch of salt and perhaps try them all and rank them like we did! You never know, you might find your new favourite Whichever is your favourite, Stone Roses is always a good shout for a night out, especially before Ziggys on a Tuesday, where you can even get discounts with a Ziggys ticket.
