    Have visited a few breweries in the UK in the past to collect polypins of cask, but does anyone know if they are available to buy online and if so is the shipping feasible to here?

    That's interesting - though shipping cost isn't clear, I've emailed them.

    Also I don't know any of these ales, could anyone recommend one?

    I think hilden in Lisburn sell polypins.

    Not 100% sure though.

    Unlikely they'll ship here. Cross border beer selling is messy and generally immune from all that EU free trade malarkey.

    Problem I see here is that unlike the real ale breweries in the UK, many here are termed "craft beer" and only do keg or bottled versions.

    I really want a pin of the real stuff ;-)

    Kinnegar used to do them but they might not bother now that they're properly set up.
