Decent ales etc that come in cans

[deebeedoobee]

Newcastle Brown - an ale that can take the heat

[A Guy Called Matt]

All ales in cans taste great but taste far better if poured into a (plastic) glass especially if it is warm else you can get a slight tinny taste.

My wife bought me a pop-up plastic pint glass, as a jokey little present at xmas. Well, it's certainly coming to Glasto with me

Thought it may be of interest for folks here,
Majestic Wine warehouse currently have an offer on for 330ml cans of Punk IPA,
6 pack for £10.99 when you purchase two or more packs,
doesn't sound great but when compared to Brewdogs own service including the £5 delivery charge, it actually works out slight cheaper,
They also sell Purity Longhorn IPA at £6.99 for a 4 pack when buying two or more packs,
Not as nice but worth a think,
Plus if you register on their phone app you receive a £10 off voucher.....

Enjoy X

Had no idea this was available in cans. Lovely stuff. Will have to give it the warm can test... On the subject of which, how did your Old Golden Hen/Wainwrights testing go, Tacopowell?

Awesome - I am going to do the same! Nice one, cheers.

[markrkp]

And ordered - to pick up tomorrow. £12 off my £60 spend. Lovely!

[st dan]

What's the minimum spend to get the money off with the code?

Was going to collect mine in store but may just do this instead!

£60

[markrkp]

Even if you can't quite get to £60 worth of booze, top it up with other snacks or toiletries you may need. Anyway, digressing off the topic a little, but my order did contain Adnams and Fursty Ferret ale - just got to ensure I keep them shut away and don't get tempted.

[Mickthefish]

Just drinking wainwrights that's been sat in the kitchen for the last few weeks & it's perfectly acceptable!

[Brave Sir Robin]

Tried an Adnam's Ghost Ship that had been out of the fridge for a few days. Passable, but doesn't survive as well as, say, Tribute.

No worries!

Old Golden Hen is really nice, prefer it to Speckled, Great cold but a little tinny when warm, Need to try pouring into cup,

Think I'll be bring a few cans!

Wainwrights I'll be honest I've not tried yet....

[markrkp]

I've gone for Adnams Southwold, Adnams Ghostship, Fursty Ferret and Ruddles County. (In addition to the staples of Carling, Fosters, Export, Strongbow and Thatchers). Do have some nice ales though - 24 cans of ale in total but may get more. Will buy a few nice pints there too.

Just to update, Wainwrights is great both Cold and warm!
Will be adding to my collection.

Great news on the warm front ... Done a mix and match on various ales this year and there's some Wainwrights in there!!

[ryan.smith]

Anyone know what ales in cans they have in Makro? Heading over to one in the hopes of stocking up on Saturday - hoping they might have some Badger stuff or Old Golden Hen

[Memory Man]

on the majestic offer of £10 off it says the minimum purchase is 6 bottles of wine, champagne or spirits but doesnt mention beer at all. does anyone know the minimum you will be able to buy to get your £10 off?
