    What you said. Would love to give the new stout a try. Crafty Stout is one of my favourites. Can’t find these boxes though in the couple of Lidl’s I’ve tried

    Crafty stout isn’t bad at all to be fair. I do a lot of shopping in Lidl so it’s a handy one to pick.

    It’s a very low abv so I tend to couple it with a nice whiskey.

    Just a cri de coeur from a long time poster here.

    Can we please stop insulting what other people choose to drink.

    I really don't care what some anonymous person thinks about one drink as opposed to another.

    Just put up the deals and let us choose.

    It's really that simple.

    Absolutely. There is the “Good” Drink Bargain Alerts thread for people who are picky as to what they drink.

    I’ve had bargains off both threads but honesty don’t care what someone else chooses to drink.

    Just as word of warning to anyone who picks up the brown bear craft beer gift set from Aldi. Packaging on the box is a heap of sh1t. Picked up set there this evening and the bottom fell out box broke as carrying it into kitchen there and 10 of the 12 bottles shattered on the tiles. House smells like a brewery after it all. Annoying when €20 gone down the drain just like that.

    You should get on to aldi about that and at least get a replacement.

    The Tesco website says:
    "Any 2 For 35.00
    The items below are only available for deliveries on or before Thursday 10th December 2020.
    To take advantage of this offer, add Any 2 For 35.00"




    But Tesco take liberties with their finish dates

    Anyone tried the below

    https://www.lidl.ie/en/p/christmas-drinks/12-beers-of-christmas-selection-box/p55413

    Would try most things except for the stout

    Wondering to try them out

    Raging I only picked up the one box. The limited edition stout is delish, just be careful opening it, very fizzy.

    No you're definitely not being smart- I clearly stated bottles in the original post.
