Will check out Lidl.  Used to really like their No. 3?..Green Gecko, but then the brew or brewery changed.

Bath Ales's Lansdown is my pick of current supermarket beers if you are into your IPAs.  Bottles seem better than cans.

So many breweries round here . I drink anything.....stouts , bitters or lagers . If I go to the pub I normally do beer roulette . Some are better

than others . Most are pretty good . In doors I drink Tyskie or Lech , pretty decent lagers imo .

Without a doubt if the choice is between a bottled and can of the same beer I'd always go for the bottle. It amazes me how different the taste can be between the two.

Northern Monk are great too...haven't tried that hazy one, but Eternal is a fav.Best ever from a supermarket was from Morrisons....Kirkstall Brewery....Dissolution IPA...unfortunately was onlyavailable for short while..Wye Valley defo a good beery session beerCauthen, you are allowed to tell us the name of the subscription service!...used Beer52 for a couple of years before getting a bit tired with it..


If you are near Leeds anytime in the future not far from on Elland Road there is the Kirkstall Brewery on the A65 a bit further along they bought the Cardigan Arms and they've renovated it,done a great job.Wilde child is nearby Kirkstall Brewery on the A58 roundabout head for Armley Road.

Spoilt for choice here in Mid Sussex - Harveys, Dark Star and Bedlam all beer available delivered, and Southdowns Cellars (top independant wine merchants hereabouts) Had a 5L can of Bedlam Barcombe Blond for the weekend. Biased perhaps, Christened in Barcombe church!, but lovely stuff. We are blessed here in Sussex with craft beer, as many of you are. Support your local Brewers.

Drank lager most of my life but last few years i'd rather have a blonde beer, pale ale or IPA.

Dark Star Hophead is a favourite, so too Shipyards, Atlantic, London Mean Time Pale Ale, Camden Pale Ale, Tribute.

Also like Old Speckled Hen, thought it was too dark for me but enjoyed it.
By:

Oh and Theakstons Old Peculiar Pale Ale is a good one.

Leffe blonde another favourite, couple of them large bottles and you know about it. But enough about my brekkie

Difficult not to generalise lovegod, but I find 'Blonde Ales' invariably tasteless and I avoid. Conversely there are some dark looking 'Pale ales' that are all about light flavoursome hops. My favourite draught is Abbeydale Moonshine- summer in a glass- but I've never seen it in bottles.
By:
Jack Hacksaw
When: 04 May 20 16:22
I'd agree with the Blonde ales comment - can't think of one I like.

I will throw a couple more nice ones into the mix...

Backyard Brewery Gold.  Purity UBU or Mad Goose and their Longhorn IPA.

It's gotta be a Shipyard for me...always available at Uncle Tim's (fcuk am I missing Wetherspoons) Happy

It's an American IPA - out of the bottle just ain't the same is it? Sad
By:

When: 04 May 20 16:34
Not a bad standby!  Brewed by Marston's I think.  As was the aforementioned Green Gecko at some point.

Keg, bottle or can - not much difference.

Cask is king. Grin

IMO Lidl and Aldi 'craft' beers (330 cans or bottles) are very poor.

My second fav at home Gibberish, and always buy it draught at Sir Tim's. 4 x 440 ml for a fiver at the co-op.
By:
Gibberish
When: 04 May 20 16:49
Saddo - there's a Co-Op at the top of my road...I've never noticed Shipyard there.
I'll go and investigate soon and hopefully make an 'investment' Happy

Surely not foxy. Ossett Brewery brewery bought em because they lacked the imagination to make a beer of their own with new world hops. Their pubs are very nice ( I'm  surrounded by them_) and well run but I've never been a fan of their beers, and they are not good at choosing guest beers really. Much better beers imho, Moonshine is much better.

I really like it saddo where I get it is at a very small bar on an indoor market which has to call last orders at 5 pm,as far as I know I have not been in an ossett pub unless the muse in Wetherby is one as I am pretty sure they sell plenty of the ossett breweries drinks.

Oddly enough, they have just repurchased the pub next door to the brewery. Currently a dirty hole with a fine choice of beers. It will end up a lovely pub with slightly less choice and variety, and hopefully cleaner customers. My brother lives nearby.

I bought a tin of Tiny Rebel pineapple IPA yesterday.
Stunning stuff.
I just didn’t realise it was 6.2%.
Not cheap but a real treat.

Some of the blonde beers can be a bit tasteless, but the Leffe blonde has a lot of taste to it. £3 a bottle and 6.5 well worth a try out
