Been enjoying this stuff lately...

Me too. Went camping with cans of it and jaipur. Also took a keg of doom bar which was surprisingly okay. Much more like pub beer than any bottle. Or maybe the jaipur had ruined my taste buds by that piint

Beer Hawk have an offer for box of 15 beers (old stock) for £30 with a free box of 15 thrown in. Mine's coming tomorrow

Been tempted by that in the past. Bought one of the Flavourly crates (20 for £19) last week which is decent value but not a very exciting selection.

Marks and Spencer in the town have their Vienna lager on for 50p a can instead of £2.

ordered a few bits from cloudwater. The TIPA is a bit strong for me like, the DIPA is ideal.

I went to the Brooklyn Brewery last week. Had a try of their 11% imperial russian stout and my eyeballs were nearly falling out

Love the cloud water v brew dog beer you can get at Tesco. At three quid a pop it's a shocker price wise, but delicious

Aye, I've just stocked up on that. By which I mean I've bought two cans. It's lovely stuff.

By a shocker do you think it’s exoensive?

I think 3 quid for a can of beer is expensive. For its size it's probably not terrible value versus other craft beers, but I personally can't justify buying many 3 pound cans

That beer in anywhere other than Tesco would be at least a fiver. Given the quantities of hops used I can’t imagine many people are making much money.

I agree with you. I'll buy the odd one but 8 cans for £24 seems too much.

This, on the pricing anyway.

I get a couple when I do the 8 for £9. 10 for £15 hurts less

My local Microbrewery are having a wee trip down to Newcastle this weekend. I highly recommend their Mandarina Sky.

Off to Northern Monks 'Dark & Wild' tonight.
Lots of stouty goodness...

I'm so bored of the beers I drink in the house. What's the best way to get pub like bitters/beers in the home. Presumably barrels? Is there a way where I don't need to cane it before it goes off

Keykeg’d beers and a lindr machine

 

[johnna]

awful stuff, tastes like warm dishwater

What does?

 

[Curlyteeth]

Sooo, the keykeg is just the vessel, the lindr the pump. Do places sell filled keykegs then

I had heard rumours you save your dishwater and drink it in Shiremoor so thanks for confirming.
