Has some good beer but Pint shop next door is better stillPhil said:Others may have mentioned it before not sure.....but went to The Wellington in Birmingham ( 5 mins from New Street station ) yesterday. Well worth a visit, a decent selection of ales.0 -
Had some good beers lately from Wild Beer (Somerset), Odyssey (Worcestershire), Leffe, Siren, Kernel, Cloudwater
Joint beers of the week, both IPAs

Duvel is not good for you on a work night.0 -
Duvel is pretty nice, especially if you're keen to catch up with the race. The pint that your Wednesday friend is dinking looks far more interesting though.0

Love Villages and Little Faith. Along with the Dog & Bell, Job Centre and Full Nelson, they make for a fine night out in Deptford.Blucher said:We went to Deptford en route to the game yesterday and had some excellent beer in the Villages Brewery Tap and the Little Faith Taproom - a 2 and 5 minute walk respectively from the station. Rafiki in Villages and one of their own beers in Little Faith (maybe El Dorado). Both very fine establishments, a bit off the beaten track and well worth a visit. When you add The Dog & Bell, the area is exceptionally well served.
Sadly, with the demise of the Hop Stuff Brewery - purchased by Molson Coors in administration - the beer offering in the Taproom SE8 by the station is likely to suffer. We gave that a swerve in the interests of supporting the independents. We arrived at 11:45 before Villages opened at noon and did consider a swift half in ‘The Job Centre’, although in the light of a complete absence of customers and an advertisement outside for kale gnocchi, thought better of it.2 -
Chelmsford Oktoberfest tomorrow. A classy evening I should venture! Warming up tonight with a selection of nearly-off craft beers I picked up for a pound1

Marks and Spencers have decided to stop selling single can lagers, so thought I'd try this little number from the Kona Brewing Co in Portsmouth, the USA one.
Absolutely disgusting, it tastes like cloudy lemonade.1 -

If you like Peroni, you can get GF at most supermarkets. Few pubs in town sell it, as my boss was coeliac and could usually find itholyjo said:Been diagnosed with Crohn’s and have had to go gluten free.

Any recommended beers that are easily available in the big 6 supermarkets
prefer bottles, 500ml and no more than £2 a bottle preferably below £1.500 -
Waitrose is your best bet.MrOneLung said:Any recommended beers that are easily available in the big 6 supermarkets

sainsbury do beaver town (lupuloid is the best in my opinion) & wild beer
morrison & Tesco have more range
what sort of beer do you normally drink?1 -
been drinking from Aldi’s selections.Your Bishops Fingers , hobgoblins , directors, and some limited time ones such as Iconic Ale
also quite like Sainsbury’s whitstable bay ale and taste the difference IPA
would I like a Porter?
not keen on a Guinness or stout is a Porter going that way ?0 - Sponsored links:

Depends what you like. I'd agree with Sheffield that Waitrose is best for quality /selection. When you factor in the 4for£6 deals, Asda is hard to beat though. Adnam's Broadside is a favourite, Badger's Poacher (or whatever it's called now) is lovely , and Hobgoblin is an easy favourite that's available in loads of places. Happy drinking!MrOneLung said:Any recommended beers that are easily available in the big 6 supermarkets

Might have to go to a different one each weekend and try out their offers.It’s a tough life.1

Beavertown Brewery, Tottenham - Gamma Ray APA
very tropical fruity - their Neck Oil IPA is drinkable as well.
Usually available is the 39 Steps Alehouse, Broadstairs.0 -
Guinness is stout not porter. I like both but prefer porters, more biscuity and less creamy.If you wanna try a cheap one Sainsbury’s do a 500ml of their own brand London Porter for £1.75. Drinking one right now as it happens. Won’t set the world alight but it’s very drinkable and a good one to give a try.1

Various German weissbieren (wheat beers) like Erdinger, Franziskaner (spelling?), Paulaner.MrOneLung said:Any recommended beers that are easily available in the big 6 supermarkets

Blue Moon.
These are normally around £1.90 - £2 a bottle but are often on three for £5 making them £1.67 a bottle.2 -
Tesco do 4 for 6 quid on 500ml bottled ales.
Its a matter of taste but i avoid the following: old speckled hen, ghost ship, doombar, hohgoblin, greene king ipa and im sure you dont want the bishops finger - instead try Proper Job IPA and my favourite Shipyard APA and if you frequent a Wetherspoon try Devils Backbone APA (cheap)
Do you have any micro's round your way ?
