Lucky you.

When I go to site it says not available.

Went to local Tesco and could not find any.

Mine also said not available when going to order which is annoying

No it's excluded from gaining points/vouchers too.

I never had that. The Lomza Export is a really nice tasty beer. It's not cheap, usually about 8 euro for a 4 pack. It would be higher end, but not craft.

And yes, us women can knock a good bit back :pac:

Lomza Export is lovely, I actually find it nicer from the can than the bottle.

I'm not gone on bottles. It is one nice beer with a good kick to it but not like the cheapo ones where you'd be dying afterwards.

These posts are becoming quite tiresome! If someone goes to the trouble to post a bargain alert on beer snide comments on the beer in question are not really contributing any thing. Yes, everybody knows that the beer in question does not meet universal approval, yes we know it doesn’t conform to the reinheitsgebot, so unless you have a meaningful contribution stfu!

Nice one I'll give that a go

My brother raves about Lomza Export. I think he has shares in the company.

Does anyone reckon they might eventually get around this by selling beer brewing kits at some off licenses and supermarkets? I've been brewing for a few years (hence being far less active on this thread than pre-2018

) so I'm biased but it does seem like a no brainer - replace or augment the bottom shelf stuff with simple ingredient kits which make 40 500ml bottles for c.€15 in a month or so. I'm actually amazed breweries haven't started making their own pre-hopped malt extracts for this purpose, it would be literally impossible to regulate as all of the ingredients are used every day in regular cooking - particularly if you're making homebrew cider.

Imagine walking into an Offie and buying a box for €30 which would make 40 bottles of Brewdog or O'Haras in a couple of weeks? Would be a complete game changer. Apart from the sugar tax I really don't see any way they could regulate this price-wise without it also effecting basic cooking and baking ingredients.

Very much thinking of those grape packages they sold in the US during prohibition, upon which there was apparently a note to the effect of "WARNING: Do not boil the contents of this box, add yeast, and leave in a sealed container for several weeks - you may inadvertently create an illegal alcoholic beverage"

This sounds a lot like what actually happened in prohibition times

nice idea but would people really be bothered?
i mean you could be doing this for the last 30 years, yes im sure the quality is much better nowadays, but how many people do it to save a few quid, little to none i imagine. id say the only people who do it are doing it as a hobby as much as anything.
also, you might think it is an easy process but i think you'd be surprised at how many people would make a balls of it

Not disagreeing with you on the mechanics of home brewing, you are obviously an enthusiast and good luck to you.

However, I would prefer not to have to take up a new hobby to be able to drink in moderation in my own home

I only want the marketplace to decide the price of the drink I enjoy not some over zealous neo-prohibitionist politician.

Clearly too much to expect in our Republic.

I am quite partial to the unfiltered Lomza myself. If only that was available in four-can multipacks...
