best they get brewing up some more and a bit sharpish too!

 

[Oslernorth]

This looks awesome. Hopefully there will be an update when it’s back on sale.

There will be a lot of bitter fans who can't get any

Tried to order a gift pack and they don`t deliver ...

Tried that as well and had the same response - however, the beer itself has just arrived!

What trickery is this? Do tell.

I tried 5 different houses in our road..... nada, nuffing.

As I am very close to Freeland, getting quote for a direct pipeline feed. Just opening first can - very nice!

That would be a great Christmas present!

Saw the tweet yesterday and tried ordering the 12 pack x 2, along with a gift pack. The system wouldn't process the gift pack but did process the 12 pack order. I'm not at home but i'm assured it has arrived (I'm in SW London).

 

[NottsYellow]

I suppose they are not allowed to sell it in club shop!

 

[Village-Yellow]

Just ordered the 12 pack.

Gift pack too fragile for non local delivery .

 

[BrockBuster]

Anyone actually tried any yet? Nice idea but here's hoping it doesn't taste like footballer's socks eh?

Just tucking into my 2nd now - it’s a very decent pale ale, no complaints here!

 

[Pompeyyellows]

I don’t like pale ale

 

[EastStandKieran]

I don’t like pale ale

I don’t like ale if it was a nice beer or cider then id buy it but no ale

Ale is beer. You mean you only like lager?

Usual suspects want something for free.

 

[Maurice Earp]

Don't really like blonde and pale ale, I prefer stouts, porters, and dark beers.

 

[Paul Cannell]

Dear me, Maurice, perhaps they'll produce a tinned porter one day.

I'm not convinced that tinned beer is more like the real thing than tinned peaches, tho.

It doesn't have to be tinned, it can be bottled I used to like golden ales but too many breweries started brewing them and ruined the recipe.

I think there are hundreds, if not thousands, of recipes for pale ales these days, and therefore many different tastes. Much better than the days of just a few large breweries producing rubbish.

Although I also like the darker beers too, especially this time of year. Drinking a nice German black bock this very minute.

Turtlely agree. Just why drink them.out of cans.

Hook Norton Twelve Days is a nice porter. Dark, but not too heavy and a good sessional beer.

I started up a beer club with like minded mates where we each take it in turns to find different ales. I find some of the mass produced ales too hoppy and more like drinking potpourri! But the enjoyment is finding those hidden gems. Recently had a nice chocolate stout by Toast Ale who use unwanted bread and distribute all profits to charities.

You lightly chill them and pour them into a pint glass, obvs

 

[CaptainOx]

Lovely beer, enjoyed a few over the weekend.

Shame the gift pack isn't deliverable outside the shire as quite like the look of the glass. But it meant, I had to get a 12 pack instead so not complaining.

 

[Concretebob]

Actually canned beer is much better than bottled. Especially with a hoppy style like this one where it could oxidise in bottles (especially if they are clear or green)

Anyway glad the club are supporting a local business. Hopefully can pick some up soon

I picked up a couple of the gift packs from the brewery in Freeland yesterday, and also a few of their other offerings.

I wasn't there long, but while I was there three other people turned up to collect gift packs, and other cans. The tie up seems to be working well for the brewery.

my sister was planning on calling in on the brewery on her way home to Kidlington from Witney yesterday afternoon
