Have you tasted the green one?

Whoever suggested Lidl’s beer called Perlenbacher is a cunt.

 

Tastes like piss and I have 7 cans left.

Talk about going all in. Post of the year for me, so far!

Madman.

 

Lidl do crates of 15 Guinness for £12.50. Those and the maple & pecan plaits are the only things worth going in there for.

They changed it about a year ago. Used to be passable bit now it's shandy fuel

Got an order in from Innis & Gunn, as I wanted to try out their Mango IPA - Mangoes on the Run.

 

It's a bit different. Couldn't drink too many in a session as it's a bit sweet for my liking. Still, refreshing enough for this time of year.

 

Got a few cans to get through in total. 6x Mangoes on the Run, 6x Gunpowder IPA, 4x Lager Beer & 4x Innis & None.

 

Have also got a 6 litre keg of Franziskaner hooked up to my Perfect Draft, and I've got a keg of Leffe Royal Cascade IPA sat waiting to go too.

Haven't had a beer in two months. Gasping for a lovely, crisp, cold IPA in all of this hot weather.

Can I come round to yours?

They sell that in the Lidl by me for about 50 cents a can. Veltins and Bitburger is only 70 cents though and I know I like them.

I think I did a while back, I can't remember what I thought of it but I never had the urge to try it again so it must have been shite.

Feeling your pain. My liver function test has been iffy the last 2 times it's been tested so as a result I'm not touching a drop to see if it improves. Not the best time of year to go dry.

I got these from Honest Brew online.

I had the Human Cannonball and Molotov Lite years ago in the Craft Beer Company pub, when we lived in Brighton.

 

 

Haven't tried the Unhuman yet (it's a bit intimidating, to be honest).

 

 

 

Had one of these from Siren: definitely full-on coffee taste, almost as deep as Kalhua.

 

 

Going to order this, next time:

 

[cloggypop]

Evil Twin. All I've had by them was some stout that cost loads in the bar, came in a tin can but was absolutely lovely. 12% or so alcohol though which is damn dangerous.

[Remmie]

Evil twin and siren are boss breweries, repped

[Jarvinja Ilnow]

Well, had the Human Cannonball earlier today when gardening, brought to me by my lovely wife (with the instruction: "any of them except the Unhuman!").

 

It was a lot more drinkable than the Molotov Lite, maybe because it was hot today, but I felt it was a lot more balanced and smooth. It's so drinkable, it took a while to kick-in and for me to feel it - weird, because Molotov Lite has a lower ABV but it punches early. I remember the Human Cannonball wrecking an American colleague of mine years ago: she used to drink Stella and Kronenburg. but I tried to warn her about this stuff. It's a slow burner.

 

At the risk of pissing people off, maybe the Human Cannonball is the Andre Ward of the beer world, and Molotov is the Kovalev?

 

I might finally grow the nads to try the Unhuman 11% this weekend, after more gardening. Or will chicken out again..

[Oh Buoy]

Trying these beauts out tonight.

 

Aldi. £2.99.

You didn't get giddy and buy 8 cans again did you?

[Oh Buoy]

Only 4 this time around. Can't trust these Aldi/Lidl brands anymore.

 

Overall, an alright beer. Perhaps would buy again if I were in the store.

 

3.5/10.

[lifetime fan]

Tried an IPA on the way home from work this afternoon, can’t rememeber the name, something like Duberlious???

 

Was alright and was 2 for 1 which was why I stopped.

[Redder Lurtz]

Our "craft of the week" this week. Snake Dog IPA. 7.1% of fucking awesomeness.

Great brewery is Flying Dog.

Is your gaff in Leeds town centre, Lurtz?

That's a good one.

Just bought 'Sainte Etienne' from Aldi. 

 

Review to follow. 

[cloggypop]

Did you get a slab?

Bit shite considering it's an 4.8% beer. 

 

Starts light with a smooth 'Amstel' taste but then slides into an unpleasant aftertaste. 

 

Similar to having a nice meal and then having vomit-flavour burps a few hours later. 

 

Wouldn't get again personally but better than the gash at Lidl.
