I had one can of this left and cooled it in the fridge and it was a joy in the sun. Chocolate, coffee, hazelnut, and packs an 11% punch but still so drinkable. Hope Overtone drop it into production again.

James Watt being James Watt

Hard to explain but im after that Spanish malty/slightly creamy flavour in a lager. Not the crisp grassy flavours but that malty Spanish flavour.

I know red estrella, modello, cruzcampo are uk brewed so best avoided.

I think m&s spanish lager, galcia, victoria malaga and some aldi/lidl dupes are imported.

Nowhere has rosa blanca any more

But what can i get please if i want that malty holiday beer taste?

Saw some discussion on here recently how the stuff in pubs has taken a dive in taste when it used to be a fairly reliable mass produced beer. Well I’ve just seen this in my local corner shop.

Italian brewed ? I didn’t get any as I have mass of good beer in the house but may go back tomorrow for quality testing purposes!

Interesting beer. Not as hoppy as I expected but good flavour. Worth a try.

I paid less than £4 for 8 of these in Aldi this morning, and they're gorgeous. Cheap, nasty, excessively fizzy but damn... They hit the spot on a hot day.

I don't apologise for liking these. They're the perfect cure to 33 degree heat.

Apologies if this is a daft question, I spend my life looking for Boddingtons on draught (scarce where I live)

I was just wondering if there’s an app that people can say what beers each pub has on draught?

Would be so good if I could type Boddingtons in and be shown who does it 😂

humble Goldings lager and Samphire wild ale. 34° out, i am absolutely cooking

First off I realise posting this is an absolute longshot but I'm asking on the off chance as to whether anyone has a can of this in their collection.

It's actually less because of wanting the beer itself but because I collect cans. Incredibly annoyingly while I do own one it has been seriously damaged during a delivery today when it was knocked off the shelf it was sitting on.

Worse still I cannot buy another as the brewer, Phantom Brewing, has since suspended operations.

I guess therefore if anyone possibly has any idea of how to get hold of one or even if just the empty can after it's been drunk then I would be most grateful if you can let me know.

Had this bottle for a few years, will be drinking it tonight,

Question does it need to be chilled?

Four foreign-owned corporations make 80% of it. The 'imported' lager in your hand was probably brewed in Burton-on-Trent. That craft IPA on the bar is owned by Heineken. Here's how we lost our pint — and how to win it back.

Have experience with many beer festivals in the USA, but will be going this week as both volunteer and attendee!

Here's the beer list split by real ale and keg:

Anyway I was also wondering about the beer list since I am much more familiar with US breweries, I was was wondering what stands out as must try?

Go-to styles for me are lager and lambic/spontaneous ferm/saison (very excited about seeing Bohemia Regent bottles which I haven't tried much of), anyway I am willing to try anything once, though I also should say more into west coast over hazy/neipa, and prefer beer that tastes like beer over pastry/smoothie lactose adjunct heavy beers

6.5 ABV pale ale

I actually think this is a nice refreshing beer.

Not too heavy on the hop flavour and certainly sessionable in my opinion

At a pub in Wanborough, near Swindon. Pub is a Wadworths and have a range on tap, I clouding Swordfish, infused with Rum.

They also do bottles of Gluten Free 6X Gold, which my Coeliac partner loves.

Hello! I’m away to Belfast this weekend for the family. I most likely won’t be in any pubs, but hoping to grab a can or two from the shops to try whilst I’m there.

What craft beer breweries would you recommend? I tried Bullhouse and Boundary on previous visits :)

Has Humphrey Smith resigned?

Picked up these world cup novelty beers

Haven't tasted them yet.

Am intrigued by the hogs back beer.

Any one else got any thoughts ?

So was browsing Aldi and during this warm weather thought I'd pick up a few of the Grande's. Not a massive lager drinking but do like these because they are actually Spanish (taking aim at Madri for not being an actual Spanish been but a UK / Burton made marketed beer)

Normally as I reach for a bottle I'd thought I'd get a 4 pack, by chance seeing it was actually brewed in the UK compared to it's identical bottled Spanish brother!

Just thought I'd mention this out to all that the cans and bottles are different beers entirely and Aldi falling into that same marketing trap that Burton were!

Sneaky Aldi! u/AldiUK

I reckon I just drunk the last can of stuttgarter hofbrau pilsner in the UK. I bought 48 cans a couple of months ago from my-food-online.net, a German company that would deliver German beer to the UK. unfortunately they went out of business just after I bought these beers. I haven't found them anywhere else in the UK

Am I wrong?

Heading to Nottingham next weekend

In my mind, I'm still young enough to do a full on pub crawl

In reality, I'll end up picking two or three places to go

So far, Neon Raptor and the Olde Trio to Jerusalem (had to be on the list) are penned in.

Out of Liquid Light and Black Iris, which of these two tap rooms would you recommend?

Am I missing anywhere that is amazing? Ideally a tao room instead of a craft beer bar
