I can remember having some ludicrously strong stuff on holiday one year, think it was 12% ABV. Rocket fuel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeartsOfficialMoaner Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 This one is really, really nice. McChouffe. A wee kilt on and playing the pipes. A brilliant label as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 I remember getting a 750ml bottle of McChouffe at the Motherwell Beer Festival many years ago and enjoying it on the train back to Hamilton. I think work was a bit of struggle the next day! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen a few whisky infused beers here advertised as Scottish style, I have never been tempted but maybe I should give the McChouffe a go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Henry Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Northern Monk’s stuff is very solid (not literally) indeed. I could drink gallons of this Eternal Sunshine IPA. This month’s Beer52 delivery is absolutely terrific. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tongue_tied_danny Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 (edited) My Beer52 order arrived this morning. It was the free first month shipment for £5.95 postage. I don't really want to pay £24 a month for 8 beers so I cancelled my subscription. It says that you have to phone but they were busy so I emailed them and they replied pretty quickly with some sob story that they are sorry to see me go and promising rewards if I come crawling back. They said the next order would be £16. It is tempting but I don't want to turn this into some kind of soap opera pish so I'm making a clean break. The beers themselves look pretty interesting. There's even a black pepper IPA that I'm keen to try. There's also a bag of some chickpea snack and a magazine. A pretty decent haul for £5.95.

Eight beers a month is a nice amount of booze for me, and there’s some great stuff. Including this porter, which is a top five all time for me. Glorious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The black pepper IPA has absolutely no pepper in it to my taste. YMMV. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had my subscription for over a year and have gone all in for the 12-pack upgrade. Don't think I've ever been disappointed although amber/red ale is the only style I haven't really been taken with so far. Maybe I just haven't met the right one yet... Also have an Honest Brew subscription, which might be a better move for some folk as you choose the beers yourself. As well as stand-alone orders, you can pay into their "beer bank" membership every month and this also gets you 10% off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
