    I ordered a bottle of Brewdog "The Physics" from Sainsburys but the heathens delivered a 5am Saint! At least I have a Landlord, a Tribute and a meantime london pale ale to soothe my wounds.

    Blimey! That is a bit of let down, like expecting Scarlet Johansson delivered to your hotel room and getting Mrs Brown.

    Impressive sah! 23 beers total this week for me (25 if you count the cans of Sainsburys Basics Bitter which ended up as ginger beer shandy) 20 of which were new. I put the emphasis on week as it included a trip to my beer stash at home (and I just realised I forgot to review some of them inc. the Westy 12 D:slight_smile:, the train station Whistle Stop, the random visit to Discount Supermarket, the trip to the brewery and the Sainsbury's delivery. (drank a TT Landlord from that - quality end to the week!) That said I may have to be dry next week, bar a few bitter shandys of course... and maybe a few cheeky pub lunches...
    Indeed sah! Though I suppose it will let me re-review this beer that I disliked but everyone else liked.

    what is this Westy you speak of? I trust you're not going all cissy boy and demeaning the proud name of Westvleteren

    Like you demean the proud title of Reprobate?

    Just finishing off a Kernel Galaxy IPA picked up yesterday morning (along with 11 other Kernel brews), and then it's a Batch 0 Black Albert.

    :O I had one of these saved for a special occassion but my dad broke into my stash and nicked it while I wasn't home. He said it was "ok" :slight_frown:. My first decent non-British beer that was.

    You know De Struise has now started brewing it regularly? The original recipe I mean. You'll have plenty occasion to try it.

    They should stop calling it Batch 0 then! Call it recipe 0 or something... if it isn't the first batch!
    I'm a student so by definition an alcoholic lol. This has been a strangely beer filled week for me in all honesty.

    Currently drinking a Bateman's XB - not loving it too much. Oh well.

    Damn! I'd probably go apeshit if my dad ever nicked my 'good' beers, but fortunately he's a relatively unadventurous ale drinker. Anything he perceives as 'weird' would probably be given a wide berth.....

    I've been on at Sainsburys for ages about his- they've always advertised 5am as The Physics. I don't think they even make the Physics any more...

    Hmmm then I might ring up. But maybe they would then raise the issue of the £5 of cheese and bottle of milk the driver gave me by accident...

    I've noticed this as well. If you use Mysupermarket to look up Brewdog info for Sainsburys, the Physics is listed whereas 5am Saint isn't. Seems like they need to update their product database or something...

    It's a steal!

    Why does the weekend drinking have to stop?
    Bloody stupid employement rules and policies.
    I reckon I would be shit hot at my job ripped to the tits on quality ale.
