    Hi All,
    Just been to my local Sainsburys at Jacksons and they are selling 3 cases of Stella 330ml 20 pack for £20 for 1 week only. This is just 33p per bottle.
    I don't know if this applies to all Sainsburys stores.
    Hope this helps someone.:beer:

  • Are you sure these are 330ml bottles?

    There was recently a thread on a similar offer:

    but the bottles were 284ml.

  • It's actually 284ml (1/2 pint) but still a bargain.
    Tesco's offer is 2 for £16 which works out at 40p per bottle

    Beer brewed in the UK has loads of sugar added to accelerate the fermentation process, so that it's ready in three weeks. Pilsner, as ordained by the Czechs, and copied by the Germans with their Rheinheitsgebot law, should take twelve weeks to ferment, and has no added sugar! Hence, doesn't have as much sugar/carbohydrate!

    I know, I used to work for Whitbread which used to brew the stuff in Samlesbury, Preston! They sold it off to Interbrew since.

    VINDICATED !

    Thankyou friend .

    Most traditional beers are a carefull blend of local knowledge, method , ingredients , love, skill and WATER .

    You could label Skol as Stella but it would still be an imposter, would you buy Greene King Abbot brewed in Namibia ? Very few if any beers stand the relocation of Brewery without loss of taste and quality as I know well from 3 local brews being bought out by the big groups !
