Best consumed on a sleigh ride through a snowy Polish forest, in the company of reprobates, in my experience. Enjoy! £15 for 70cl from Lidl. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the region goes it's nothing exceptional but hits the spot for the first cold beer of the evening. Another one that brings back good memories. Was the lager of choice in Bratislava when I was there. Crisp and clean, went down a treat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much are Lidl selling it for? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'WellDel Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Nipped into Aldi tonight for a few Stella, and was intrigued by these two 750ml bottles (£2.99 each iirc). The black one, bière millésimée, a French brew, was very palatable, will buy again. Just about to try the St. Pierre Belgian Blond. Both around the 6% mark so a decent dunt for your money. Follow these up with the Stella's and could be a hazy head in the morning.!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Lidl have got a bunch of Scottish beers in this week (Thursdays are when they start their new promotions, which include the mad shit in the middle of the store and their drinks promotions). Picked up these: Wanted to get more but I'm poor and also don't want to buy too many beers. As an aside, Lidl also sell the decent Innis and Gunn craft lager (green cans) in a 4 pack for a fiver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame they don't sell the 'festival' beers all year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie McSquackle Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I've tried these few tonight. All decent enough with the Glasgow Porter and the super drinkable Winter Sunshine from Spey Valley Brewery (pick of the bunch) being the stand-outs. The Neipa was the only one I was a wee bit disappointed in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Williams Brother Craft Lager is very good stuff too. NEIPAs are more miss than hit in my experience/opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Anyway, bottles of this were £1 in Morrisons. Obviously they're punting the stock. Actually pretty decent stuff. Not as strong and definitely far less carbonated than a normal Strongbow is, and far less sweet, despite smelling exactly as you would imagine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
