Damn, looks like I missed out on the latest restock of the mystery case from beer merchants. Twats reissued it while I was on holiday, gagging for a fresh case as well.

Has there been one? I've have loads of emails off them but not a mystery box.

I did click on a link to ask for an alert when it's back in stock. Can't snooze on these fuckers unfortunately, may have to get 2 cases next time.

Fucks sake. I didn't get that and I am also on the alert email! 

[sh#t waffle]

Yeah, they've put the price up to £30. I missed it too, but hopefully they come back in stock before Christmas

[Remmie]

Yeah still definitely worth the money at £30

I didn’t get the email either. I put another alert on in case the change in price stopped it 

[Remmie]

As soon as anyone gets an alert maybe PM each ither on here? I'll notice quicker than my emails

Yep, shall do. I seem to be the only person I know who's getting the emails!

[RJ Fan club]

I’d be interested in a PM Ollie & Zeb

To be fair I did get the email but was en route to Porto at the tine so didn't notice it until way too late

@Barrington Womble? 

[Remmie]

Has anyone's arrived yet? Mine has, pretty much everything is duplicated and in some cases I have 3 of some beers, except the one beer I'd most like them to duplicate- the 10% Beak imperial stout. Does feel a bit like a price increase paired with a variety and possibly even quality drop off. Bit gutted really.

Oh shit - mine arrives on Monday so shall report back then. 

[Remmie]

I got

3 x Bolleke

3 x Deya Magazine

2 x Tegernseer Pils

2 x Tegernseer Helles

2 x Murk-life balance

1 x Beak Imperial stout

1 x Deya (not magazine, something else) 

 

Those are from memory so will update when I get the chance

[Red_or_Dead]

Bollocks, never got the email either for the mystery case.  Wankers.

 

 

[Remmie]

Sorry Red or Dead, think we need to add you to our TLW mailing list.

[Remmie]

Haha Flavourly are trying to muscle in, shame my experience of them has been crap beer. 

 

 

[RJ Fan club]

Excuse the mess behind, here’s pretty much one of everything I got, aside from a Lervik pils,

Looks same as mine. Quite a few dupes which was disappointing but can’t knock it for value. 

[sh#t waffle]

Mine never showed up as DHL managed to drop it and smash all the bottles in it - they're sending me a replacement which will hopefully have no duplicates and a minimum ABV of 8% to make up for me having to go without beer for several days.

[sh#t waffle]

Looking at RJ's box (oo er, etc), although the duplicates are disappointing (and as much as I like Deya and Beak, I've had them before) it really is still brilliant value - it's Brewdog prices for mostly excellent beer.

[Remmie]

Yeah been drinking the dupes first and they are better than I thought, I do like the Bolleke

[sh#t waffle]

Mine has just arrived - very similar to RJ's, a lot of duplicates and a few too many lagers for my liking. As RD says, still excellent value, but I'm hoping this is a one off where they had way over ordered on a few things, as it's nowhere near as interesting as previous boxes.

@TheBitch for the next one please.

I’ve just put an order in for the Vocation Naughty and Nice selection box. 

As I was perusing the site I realised how they just don’t really add much selection these days and that’s why I rarely if ever buy from them any more.
