I’ll report back. Their glasses are cute. 330ml size. Supping from one as we speak. Have to keep topping it up. 🙄 Quote

Zico Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 I got bored with flavourly quite quickly Their mystery boxes were the left overs from their main boxes Always enjoy the beer52 selections, but l you'll not find anything else to buy on their site other than left overs from their monthly boxes Honest Brew the best one in terms of ongoing changing choices, though more expensive Quote
Spider Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 Fucking hell Are they just going to send me 20 cans of skol? i mean, I’ll drink them, but was hoping for a box of crafty joy. Quote
Steejay Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 Kinell guys, be a bit more subtle eh? Spider’s ordered already and he’s really looking forward to delivery until he reads the above. ☹️ Quote
Traf Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 Lads, Banks Bitter, 89p for a 500ml bottle at Home Bargains. Pour it into a pint pot and squeeze some grapefruit juice in it. Craft ale at a fraction of the price. Quote

It'll be decent enough, but if you want to mix it up with them moving forward you'll probably be disappointed as they keep sending you the same stuff Quote
jeep Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 For you Craft Beer enthusiasts Lidl have some offers on from today. Quote

Shame really, love the Williams Bros beers, always bring a few Jokers back when I’m up in Edinburgh. That Double Joker is dangerously suppable. Quote

tomski Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) Haven’t we concluded that craft beer smells of sweaty socks and is emperors new clothes 2020? sorry @DazBob and @Pablo Edited April 30, 2020 by tomski Quote
Not in Crawley Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 We've got a nice pub that does all this craft ale stuff. One of the problems is everything on tap is 8-9% and tastes either of grapefruit or sour sweets. I don't mind getting a Flyte, but then I seem to drink them like they are little glasses of pop and its cost me a fortune. There are some nice ones, but seems like there is an awful lot of guff about very similar tasting beers. Plus even in co-op these craft beers are selling for £3.30 for a 330ml can. I know they are small breweries but there's a big mark up there for branding etc Anyway, to ensure you all get back to the pub and wet your whistle (preaching to the choir, I know) this is a campaign my company did for The British Beer Alliance on a campaign by breweries to Save The Local.....

Pablo Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 No grapefruit in them really, thats just the flavour of the hop. Quote

Not in Crawley Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 Yeah - I know it’s the hop, but there is very little distinctive tastes, my dad has brewed beers for years and whilst he doesn’t mind them he thinks there’s a many claiming a lot for not very much. Quote
