Decent Beer at Decent Prices

Options
I just thought I'd share a few bargains I've seen over the last few days.

Bittburger Premium, 4.8% ABV, 660ml - £1.27 = £1.92 per litre - in Sainsbury's

Artois Bock, 6.2% ABV, 275ml - 65p = £2.36 per litre - in Sainsbury's

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, 5.6% ABV, 350 ml - £1.00 = £2.86 per litre - in Asda

Bass Premium Ale, 4.4% ABV, 500ml - £1.00 = £2.00 per litre - in Asda

I know it's the most expensive of the four, but I have to say that the Sierra Nevada was worth every penny. There again, I haven't had a chance to try the Bittburger yet, as it's chilling in the fridge.

    Had some Bittburgers a few weeks ago and found it a most pleasant experience...
    I spelt my username wrongly on purpose, by the way!
  • If you like bitter-6 bottles of badger original for a fiver in Somerfield. Not a bad beer
  • Look at this and cry.
    An example of current beer retail prices in Germany, in Euro!!

    Prices normally per 20*500ml crate.

    Belgium for fags, Germany for booze.

    Now I'm homesick. :(
  • 20 300ml grolsch are a tenner in asda.
    Must say the Grafen Walder premium pils in Lidl for 65p for 500ml is a fine drop.

    Tha Asda 10 x 25cl own label German Lager @ £3.68 (£1.47/l) was great but they seem to have withdrawn it now only selling the awful French & Belgian stuff

    Aldi sell two very decent German brews: :beer:

    Steinhauser
    (now from Dortmund, probably re-bottled DAB)
    £2.99 for 6*330ml

    Wernesgrüner
    (Premium Pilsener from Saxony)
    £3.49 for 6*330ml

    Many of the supermarket own brand cheapy French lagers seem to come from the Brasserie St Omer, Departement Pas-de-Calais.

    Looks like Belgium and France keep the decent brews to themselves and export their horsewee to the UK. :D
  • Superbock Premium Portuguese Beer £3.99 for a 6 pack in Tesco and some Asdas stock it for £3.49.
