Craft Beer

Aldi up here often have a beer festival. I've been getting into darker beers so got a smoked stout or Porter (can't remember which). It was rank! Tasted like a packet of frazzels blended with smelly cheese! Only beer I've ever poured down the sink!

Is that new one (Hop Fiction) any good, got a bottle coming with the shopping tomorrow. Love Elvis Juice and Punk is ok but nowt special imo. Dead Pony Club is shite, but I suppose it's only £1 a can.

Can't say I've tried it yet. Let me know what you think :P

See, I love Punk IPA. It's the beer I always keep in the fridge.
 
HoS steam in Durham had Beavertown Lupuloid on tap last week, it'd just ran out when I asked for one, only got half a manky pint out of the tap so I opted for a can instead, that was very nice.

I don't mind Punk, liked the original version better though, it's not a bad drink, but nowt special for the price IMO. Something like Hop Bomb or whatever for £1.50 a bottle in B&M is half the price and just as good IMO.

I'll let you know tomorrow night what the new Brewdog drink is like. It's probably an old one with a new name knowing them though.

It's a bit much for me. Prefer to stick to the Gamma Ray/Neck Oil.

Doubt they count as craft but the Adnams beers they have in M&S are very good IMO.

You can buy mini casks from them direct pretty cheaply mate. Tesco also sell Ghost Ship kegs for £15. Some of their bottles are in the 4 for £6 deal, or at least they were when they were running that offer. They still do 4 cans of Ghost Ship for a fiver though.
