yates Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Ordered a barrel of Theakstons from the Masham brewery that will be delivered Christmas week. Other than that it will be carlsberg export or kronenberg. Got a case of Argentina Malbec and some single malts ready and waiting. Good health Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loriusgarrulus Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Think I will go back to Lidl and get some more of the IPA and Double stout by Shepherd & Neame, also some of the Winter cider with cinnamon & vanilla. Biggest problem is that each time I buy some more we just drink it. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ack-ack Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'm looking at volume, strength and cost. Basically I want as much strong cheap beer as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loriusgarrulus Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'm looking at volume, strength and cost. Basically I want as much strong cheap beer as possible. What about what it tastes like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RED BEARD Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Guinness West indies porter if I can get it, manns brown ale or anything thats very dark and stouty. Think I will go back to Lidl and get some more of the IPA and Double stout by Shepherd & Neame, also some of the Winter cider with cinnamon & vanilla. Biggest problem is that each time I buy some more we just drink it. :( Is the double stout dark and chewy? If so sounds like it might be worth a try.

Man o kent Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'm sure Gold Label will be making an appearance in the house over the festive period. Failing that a few bottles of marstons SPA, or Old Tom Quite partial to a bit of Innis and Gunn too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick miller Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Get yourselves online and get a Black Isle Brewery 'party in a box' delivered. 20 bottles of tongue heaven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollieollie Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'll be having some shepherd neame master brew and if I can get to a pub that serves it for some take away some robinsons flagon cider, imo the pinnacle of cider but not served in too many places and is only available on tap in pubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderbird Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'd gone off beer a bit recently so I went old skool a while back and had some Bass and 6X. Classics both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amateur Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 My suggestion, Order a cask from Buffy's Brewery http://www.buffys.co.uk/buy.php and drive less than 50 miles to Tivetshall St Mary to pick it up. You won't be disappointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the double stout dark and chewy? If so sounds like it might be worth a try. The Shepherd & Neame stout is far too drinkable and black as a crow with a good frothy head. Might have to go back and get some more. Although I shouldn't be putting this on an open forum it might create a shortage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshwizard Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I tend to stick to draught Guinness unless I can get hold of a good real ale , I have just received a case of mixed wines and have two bottles of grants and one bottle of White and Mackay (which I have just opened ) .
