Beer deals

Looks like the Asda and Tesco 3 for £20 is the best deal on different varieties.

HOWEVER

Sainsburys just trumps Asda and Tesco with their full case of cans (24) for £10 deal on some brands, they are Fosters, Carlsberg. Getting 2 cases at Sainsburys gives you 48 cans for £20, whereas the Asda/Tesco deal would only get you 45 cans for £20. I know it's only 3 cans but it's a saving.

IN ESSENCE

Sainsburys is best for Fosters (cans), Carlsberg (cans) (3 cans more than Asda, tesco)
Tesco on price is best for Stella and Export bottles. Also better some other brands on offer here that can't be found anywhere else.
Asda also has other brands on offer that other supermarkets don't.
Morrisons is rubbish.

For all else, Asda and Tesco are pretty matched.


FURTHERMORE

If you're shopping online, this all maybe contradicted due to the £10 off first order offer tesco have, see here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/2376443

For shopping in-store, these are the best deals i can find. Here are the online links.

Sainsburys: http://www.sainsburys.co.uk/groceries/index.jsp?bmUID=1276117919594
Asda: http://groceries.asda.com/asda-estore/specialoffers/linksavecontainer.jsp?promoId=ls60985p4
Morries: http://www.morrisons.co.uk/Offers/Drinks/
Tesco: http://www.tesco.com/superstore/product/promo.aspx?prodId=56739918

FINALLY, if you're a cider drinker, don't even go near the Magners 6 pints for a tenner at tesco. You can get 12 cans for a tenner on the same deal. If you get the pint bottles it's £2.93/litre but if you get the 12 cans it's £1.89/litre. Though I suppose some people like bottles... hopefully they're worth the £1.04/litre extra you'll pay.

Hopefully this will help/hasn't posted before because i've spent AGESS writing this out. Not really bothered if it has already been posted either 'cause now I've got something to refer to before I go shopping for this weekend's BBQ! Oh, please feel free to point out any mistakes I may have made.

yes but buying the export at tesco on 3 for £20 means you get 54 bottles rather than the 48 you would do at sainsburys for the same price...

Appreciate the extra info as I was about to go to Morrisons and buy three 12-packs for £18. I was in Tesco store yesterday and they hardly had anything in.

TBH I guess the Morrisons deal is actually still competitive though isn't it? If you go for the 3 for £18, e.g. that would get you 36 cans of Carling for £18 or 50p a unit, so same cost per unit as Sainsbury's £10 for 20, but obviously having to spend more. But if for instance a Morrisons branch is more convenient than Sainsburys? Hmm.

Anyway thanks again for taking the time to write up the beer deals!

Asda works out at 44p a unit so much better deal than Morrisons

Thanks OP for the information - I think the Morrisons deal is a bit better than what you make out if they are 440ml cans! Seems like a good deal for Budweiser.

Looks like Tesco and Asda are matched on the bottles. If you don't mind drinking cans though get the 3 cases of 12 Bud cans at Tesco. You get just over two more litres of beer for your money.

Carling is still better at Asda and yep they are 440ml cans not sure about the Bud deals though
