Innis & Gunn do a lager that has rolled oats as an ingredient and its delicious. Aldi had it on the shelves for a while but not seen it for ages. Asda was selling 12x440ml boxes of 'The Red Hand Grenade' for £10 but their site no longer has it listed, going to the Burnden shithole toneet so will see for sure. In my opinion it's a winner, it's available almost everywhere for about a quid or a few pence more per can - can't go wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shit hole 😂 Is it true there's a full length mirror between the staff area and shopfloor emblazoned with the legend 'SMILE! YOU'RE ON THE ASDA STAGE'... I wouldn't be too pissed off, they're tossers. I remember once some meathead from my gym, about 6' 2' and 16 stone was mincing about stacking yoghurts etc. whilst some 5' skinny lass was humping around those 6x2L cases of pop/water bottles stacking the drinks section. And when they brought in self-scan I noticed almost all the staff they got shut of were the ones originally from Africa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worked on the photo developing counter whilst I was at college to fund my 4 nights a week drinking 😂 spent more time in the warehouse wagging and flirting with the middle aged manager who was 20 years older than me. No idea why I was sacked 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been out of the house during delivery hours for about two or three hours during that time - no 'missed you' card or owt. If they left it on the doorstep (or with all but one neighbour) then that'll be ale I'll never sup. Couldn't give a fuck about £1.95 but it's the principle - if they simply ain't delivered or someone's swiped 'em off the doorstop or some bastard neighbour has got merry with them. Did anyone else order any? They've pissed their chips for future orders off me - even if they turn up... order confirmation email says it'll be dispatched week commencing 8th Feb.....

Bad to the Bone is more malty and the Mild/Port o’ Call are good if you like darker beers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Crawley Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I've cracked. Its too depressing and boring so I'm having a few beers whilst doing an online peep show quiz. 50 quid jackpot!

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted January 16, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted January 16, 2021 Still not on the beer. I can’t be arsed drinking in the house at the moment but I’m dying to get to the pub for a pint. I’ve had enough of this lockdown bollocks now, it’s novelty value has worn off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Sweeney made a beer in 2019 called Hercules after Steptoe and sons horse it is epic and just what you are after ,proper old school warming winter beer , unfortunately Dave wouldnt listen to sense and it is bottled in 330ml bottles. That makes it an expensive buy compare to 500ml in supermarkets when it is on draught around christmas , happy holidays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not a craft beer fan, they seem to give me a headache after one and I'm not into hoppy beers, rather have a lager. Although, some of the hoppy ales in Kent are really good I have to admit.

crawshawbooth Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Before lockdown Dave was talking about brewing an ale that had the characteristics of port of call combined with his Hercules brew I love his Leprechaun stout that he brews for March and paddys day about 6% food of the gods , wish he would run with it all year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjhb Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Leprechaun Stout is great, agreed. I'm not too fond of their most recent beers though, certainly compared to their old favourites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErnestTurnip Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 The Innis & Gunn in a green can is in Asda and Tesco as well, had it in their tap in Edinburgh the other year and was even better not out the can. Expensive hipster vibe in there mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
