Where it comes from
Clipping of Tetley's, the brewery which formerly produced the beer, from Tetley + -'s (possessive suffix).
noun Tets
- A bottle or serving of Tetley's beer. 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.
