Free beer is best beer

Hackney Port Barrel Aged Imperial Stout.

Port Barrel Aged Imperial Stout

Those are some of my favourite words. Where'd you get that?

The Axe.

I still haven't had a Beavertown beer that is better than their collaborations. The Cloudwater one continues the theme.

If you go to Vegas I can recommend Ellis Island Hotel.

Microbrewery on site. The Winter Spiced Ale is going down a treat. Very gingerbread!

And $2.50 a 'pint'.

Better if it was available on a Saturday when i'm out near a Brewdog bar!

^ first world problem.

Has anyone taken advantage of the free introductory case offer from Beer52 and then bailed before paying any monthly subscription? £24 for a case of 8 beers seems pretty eye-wateringly expensive to me, so I don't want to get trapped into an ongoing monthly payment.

I've carried on the subscription as I quite liked the packs, they tend to be themed and there's generally very little that I've had before. Particularly liked the one a few months ago which had a variety of beers to compare (same brewing process but one pair used different hops, one pair with different yeast, etc).

I think I'm signed up to either once every two months or quarterly and I paid upfront so it is a bit cheaper. Most of the beers look to be in the £2.50 to £3.50 range (although a fair few don't seem to be available over here) so price is about average.

I think they would be OK with cancelling though, service has been decent. I don't think there is any option to cancel online though so it would be a phone up and deal with them so probably a bit of spiel to cope with before you cancel.

Was subscribed to them for ages, had it fixed at 8 beers for £19 or 10 for £24, but got way too many boring pales by the end of it. No issue with cancellations, though having to ring up is a shitter

Thanks for the heads up, this month it’s an Irish selection, St Patrick’s day sorted, £5.95 postage is all you pay plus a phone call to cancel future subscriptions.

Update - there is a downside, shipping is by Yodel...

Got Decadence too... not having both on a school-night though.

Bottle of Old Peculier - not had one in years, but rather good.

By people who missed the point?

It has become news(beat)-worthy:
