'craft' Ale...


Recommended Posts

I love my craft ale, PAS and IPAs

 

However

 

In London for work

 

Had a pint in the euston tap

 

Got 4 cans for the train home, small cans not big ones

 

£19.60

 

It's gone too far

I'd have been semi sympathetic if Daft Punk's lawyers had got in touch.

When lawyers back down just because of bad publicity, it still means you're​ a set of dicks.

There's a lot of copycat branding with companies jumping on the back of others investment in marketing but Brew Dog have pulled all sorts of maverick stunts in developing their brand so it sticks in the craw that they pull a trick like this. Then back out and blame their lawyers.

Punks drink; gutrot homebrewed cider, K-Cider, Karpackie 9%, White Ace, anything stolen and Buckfast...

 

They most definitely do not drink overpriced cans of piss with superfluous plastic caps - brewed by litigious sellout hipster capitalist cunts.

You missed out Brasso filtered through a tramp's sock.

I've never tried any Brew Dogs to be fair but wont be going out of my way to purchase some after that little hissy fit.

 

Possible marketing exercise that's backfired?

 

Stick to Fullers and St Austell with the occasional dalliance with others

Had 10 different ales in the Beer School in Howfen last night.

 

2 of them were over 8% which I didn't realise until I'd supped them. Could barely see straight by home time

you all need to get on untapped and start to tick them off. been on it for a few years now. just ticked off over 1400 different beers, it becomes very addictive.

 

i also subscribe to beer 52 which send me 8 bottles a month for a price, had 8 delivered this week fro mikkeller a danish brewery

Tried a few Cumbrian ales up in Barrow this weekend - very nice

 

Wish I could remember what they were called. Just tried googling and the only one that's ringing a bell is Fell Brewery

 

Every single one was lovely. Guessing it's down to the Lake District water?????

Beer 52 do some good ales but at £24 a month for 8 330ml cans and bottles I tend to wait for deals. Last Groupon was superb, £12 for 8 beers and a £24 months pass, deals like that are not often though
