Perusing Aldi website they have Brewdog Punk 440ml can for £1.29! Asda is around £2.25. They also have some Christmas type beers with a cork in..
My son likes lager...any of theirs to recommend?
I might nip out..

My Aldi experience is that they haven’t the same beer in store as the website so watch out for that.
I just found that out! Wasted journey..never mind.

Yes...I nearly bought a box of scented candles.

I’ve been out today and had a few pints of Musket Brewery Porter. Home now and having some beers my wife bought home for me after taking an elderly relative shopping.
This is where I’m starting

Pint of Beamish in one of my favourite Dublin pubs, Darkey Kelly’s, right across the road from the ever impressive Christchurch Cathedral.
And an impressive array of Rye River taps too!

I’m now having the Bhudda beer. Not the best - unsurprisingly! It is drinkable (barely) but not recommended.
Need this today.
Well, it transpires one wasn’t enough.

Do you prefer Beamish over Guinness
In the same way that I prefer rib-eye over sirloin
Beamish is drier and has a coffee roast character that Guinness lacks. I gather that is down to a late boil addition of finely ground roasted barley but I could be wrong. I have engaged the input of a visiting expert this Saturday, especially now I have the nitro tap up and running. Expect feedback of the afternoon in this thread.

I think @phildo79 has had success with the Jamil recipe. Recommends you crush the roasted barley almost to a powder, but this is mashed rather than added to boil. Although if it's grouns to a powder I'm sure a fair bit would make it into the boil.

The Jamil recipe is the one that keeps coming up online. It’s been a while since I looked at it, must check it out again. I might have misremembered mash and boil. I’ve liked all of the Jamil recipes I’ve brewed, but I would say, never ferment Hefeweizen at 17C, he’s completely wrong on that front!!!
