    Is this being made this year? I've seen the Southwold Summer Beer and the Southwold Blonde Beer but not the Summer IPA.

    I don't know but I have to say this the ipa is very good but the blonde is truly awesome! Strangley enough has a bit of a taste of wrigley juicy fruit.

    Could have sworn I saw in my local M&S last weekend. Too bad I'm well beyond beer storage capacity at home.

    What? Does that mean the IPA is out? Or is that from past experience?

    I'll try to visit the shop on the weekend to see if my eyes weren't playing tricks on me.

    They had all the adnams in the Altrincham branch even the summer/American ipa and Alty is the backend of the backside of Eng-ger-land

    it's definitely out there because it was part of a gift pack that I saw in May. Not seen it in singles though and NOT paying £10 for three bottles of beer when you can buy them separately for £2-odd each. You're basically paying £2-£3 for a piece of cardboard...

    Yeah it's the same with my local farm shop, tenner for a gift pack of 2 brentwood brewery beers (usually £2.40-ish each) and 1 greene king beer. It's riddikulus as Mr Potter might say.

    Box set did greatly puzzle me as with the six bottles for the price me five works out at roughly ten pounds so making it virtually twice the price. I NEED TO KNOW though has anybody else tried the southwold blonde and have been as impressed as myself. Normally I avoid blonde beer but man oh man is that stuff seriously gorgeous.
