They're a new one on me, I'll need to keep an eye out.
Did a Brewdog order today because Beerhawk were out of a lot of stuff.

They're small enough but recently got into a few big supermarket chains here. They have the completely gluten free brewery thing going for them too, though the more I think about it the more I think it could be a hindrance. Definitely doesn't affect the quality anyway.
Loads of people here are losing their shit because Brewdog are only doing orders to three countries where they brew. Something to do with a shareholder discount or something.
So for the time being they've removed the shareholder discount but they've then also lowered prices across the board for everybody. Honestly dunno if it works out significantly worse for the shareholders or not.
They had some stuff on sale as well and the best deal I got was 4 bottles of Brewdog / Fierce Neighbourhood for about £12.
One silver lining to this whole shitstorm is that my 2 favourite breweries are now shipping cans to local shops as they can't keg as much anymore.
Getting this beauty right down the road was a highlight considering you normally have to Upstate to get any cans whatsoever. http://untp.beer/c798c43411
Did an order last night for some stuff the local place doesn't have and at some point during payment with apple pay it switched to collection. Fucking place is right in the city too.
Ran out of red vermouth so it's onto an old fashioned this evening.
I'm going to have a bit of this Borghetti Coffee liquor and then that's probably it.
I managed to get a Treaty City order
The survey thus far says orange peel garnish is better than lemon peel garnish.
*falls down*
I’ve only two bottles left - one stout and one mild.
Very tempted to find something to go the supermarket for and load up on cans while I’m at it. “Craft” cans are usually like 4 for £6 in supermarkets aren’t they?

Get on the hot toddies, Niko.
I've a full bourbon to run through.
I'll save them for when I get the virus.
Took delivery of this last night. A few mates have it and it pours a good pint. Anyone got one?

Did you find it lively as fuck? I got one as a leaving present from my last job and while I've only bothered to order torps for it once so far I found about two thirds of it was head even trying to pour carefully and had to give it time to settle.
Not sure if I was doing something wrong or just unlucky and got a couple of torps that had taken a bump.
Actually a lot better than I thought. Had a biggish head on it but it was my first go.
Taste was great though and freezing.
Yeah I did like that and there are some decent beers on the site.
I've looked at those things before and always just come to the conclusion that I'd rather spend the £130 or whatever they cost on beer.
Yeah I probably wouldn't have bothered with one if it were my own money but it was a nice present.
Got some 12 Acres delivered today. Oatmeal porter and Hazy IPA. The former is nice anyway.
Ive decided to retire from craft beer. My lock down period is now exclusively XXXX Gold.
My old man was right all alone...

Nowt wrong with a bit of barbed wire in the heat.
The westerlies have created some very warm days
My stout is excellent. I’ve a selection of 45 bought ones sitting as well in anticipation of closures.
I’d forgot about another box in the van, so after a monster session on Saturday I still have 47 left
76 of my own too (28 of them are shit).
Forced to buy a 12 pack of coronas tonight as XXXX has gone back to full price. Corona out of the freezer is a lovely drink for 26c at 9.10pm.
Yeah Corona's alright if you just want something cold and doesn't taste of arse.
I've got some I got from the shop in. Got a Brewdog order on the way but it's taking its sweet time. I'd like to support some other Scottish breweries who're doing home deliveries but Pilot, for example, have run out of all but pale stuff which isn't really what I'm after.
Brewdog have opened a brewery in Brisbane. I kept putting off visiting which is shit but ill get there one day.
What is your main beer atm @Ian?
We arw very close to Russian Imperial Stout season.
I don't really have a main one as I tend to buy whatever I fancy either in the shop or from an online. If Pilot had everything in stock it'd either be their double mocha stout or their new raspberry and cinnamon milk stout they've done with Amundsen which is lovely stuff.
Can you get stouts all year around? Cinnamon milk sounds dangerous.
Yeah there's no "seasonal" nature of it to us. Some breweries do do seasonal beers but it's never an issue getting your hands on whatever style you fancy.
Lucky blokes. We get 3 good months of stouts and Imperial Stouts.
Don't you have any beer shops that imports shit?
I suppose getting them from the European breweries would be mega expensive.
I've porter in the fridge for today and it's about as close to warm as we get. Some 9 White Deer and some Brehon Brewhouse.
Bear With Us has finally hit the shelves. Been looking forward to it for ages.
I’ve some Brewdog Duopolis and Northern Monk Eternal coming with the showing. Oh and a can of Thornbridge Florida Weisse Raspberry Sour to try.

Drinking my own pale ale at the minute and it’s fucking class.
Mystery beer box has arrived.
The Kernel.
Brewdog told me that my order from last Monday is delayed. Meanwhile I did another order from Pilot as I'd run out which got here in under 24 hours.
After Asda sent me Fosters in my shopping, I've got the beerhawk lager box coming, along with a case of Camdem Hells
From Pilot I got three of their IPK (India Pale Kolsch), three Amber Jamm and three of their cinammon fruity stout thing.
Can't even remember what the fuck I ordered from Brewdog.
Ever see Kinnegar for sale over there @Ian?
I've had a couple of theirs so I've either seen 'em in a shop or had them delivered at some point. One was a collab with Stewart, the other was "Big Bunny" and apparently I liked both a lot.
