Ale, Beer, Stout appreciation

Brewdog really going big with the alcohol percentage in their latest stuff

Brasilian lager stout, very light and airy, pretty good

Anyone have any experience ordering beers from Hoppily:

Morrisons in their 4 x £10 deal, it has a nice chocolate & banana start but the pepper aftertaste is a bit too much for me

Dark arts hazlenut is fucking disgusting. Which is a shame as their surreal is great.

Bosh

Nothing fancy, but Lidl Purple Panther porter is £1.09 a bottle and rather good.

It's not Trub but fruit IPA's still have a bit of fruit in them.

I need to have a bit more respect for these >8% 440ml cans

Drunk before the sun is past the yard arm?

Finally cracked my can of the Zia Tiramisu Pastry Stout - definitely a dessert beer, but not as cloying as they can sometimes be. Will probably grab another can or two for the stash, though at 9.5% they'll remain an occasional treat...

I just had a delivery of a dozen cans, direct from the brewery.
Going to try and ration them for after a Sunday roast.
Should see me 'til Christmas

Strong #buyer move there.

someone in SE London seems to be buying all the Brewdog Layer Cake Neopolitan stout from every store before I can try it

I wasn't aware of this beer, a Tesco scour in my (Essex) hood has revealed it to be a myth.
Nearest one has shelf space and "sold out" sticker, claiming a restock date of Friday, so I'll pop back and see.

Whilst there today I grabbed a BD Double Punk and Triple Hazy. Was fond of the OG Hazy during the hot summer months, hoping it carries through to other Hazy named goods.

Update: Double Punk - not a fan

Picked up some of the Brewdog Aldi colab ALD IPA today. £1. 39 330ml can. 4.7%. Alledgely it's the Hop Fiction recipe.

New to me, this is good.

Sainsbury rolling out some new beers, Salt Beer Factory Alpaca was nice

Lidl beer fest again this week mostly same beers they did earlier this yer

Brewdog Layer Cake, chocolate and marshmallow stout.
Quite sweet, moderate chocolate and vanilla.
Would drink again

Recommended.

Was this from a Manchester Tesco?
Cheers!

Yeah, the Chorlton one oppo KFC.

Can recommend Alechemy Bring Out The Imp - 10.5% Imperial stout made with Belgian yeast and aged in red wine casks? Yes please! I think this came from the Waitrose near my work - might have to stick my head in as and when I go back.

yes! its great, fizzy on the tongue and quite liquorice (but in a good way)
edit: definitely in my local Waitrose, for most of the last year I'd say.
