uttoxram75 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Drank 8 pints of Timothy Taylor Landlord on Sunday night whilst watching the Champions League final in a pub in Alton. How the feck I managed to do a shift at work on Monday I'll never know. I'm too old for this. Boycie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve How Hard? Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Has anyone used the site Flavourly for deliveries and would you recommend it? Tempted by a deal they have on at the moment. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempted by a deal they have on at the moment. ? I had an account with them many years ago but it might not be relevant to what they're like now. Got fed up of the very bland beer selections they were sending out (you can't send me a bottle of Oldershaw Heavenly Blond and call it a craft beer club!) and their insistence on sending 3-4, sometimes more beers from the a single brewery every time was not my idea of 'discovery' ...but never had an issue with the site, payments, deliveries (although I can't remember whether they used Hermes or something better) or cancelling the account.

Cheers for the feedback. I decided to give them a whirl before I read your response. The deal is 24 'craft' beers for £24, delivered and no subscription, although reading your response I'm guessing they're using poetic license on the craft part. Thought it was worth the gamble until I read your review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it was worth the gamble until I read your review. tbf everyone who says craft is using poetic license, it's a pretty meaningless term now when you've got breweries like Beavertown being called craft despite being owned by Heineken & there are 30-40 craft beers in Tesco, produced in the quantities clearly needed to be in stock all year round. I'm sure the beers will be fine, tbh it's just that my tastes are centered very much on the premium, limited run, expensive side of things. It's still a good deal and will be well worth your £24, don't worry. A 24 beer order on one of my regular sites would cost anywhere between £130-160 so, you know...

Anag Ram Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I was seduced by the Flavourly offer a few years ago. I soon got disillusioned by the range on offer and ended up buying for the sake of it. I’m glad in a way that I did, because it got me into online beer purchasing. Companies like Beer Hawk, Beerwulf, Beers of Europe and Belgiuminabox are better In my opinion. Steve How Hard? and May Contain Nuts 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bwash_Ram Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Im really into the flavour of German Weisse Biers now, but i find a lot of them very gassy and "heavy going" The best one ive found is Patronus from Lidl, but thats still a bit gassy for me, anyone know of any others that are a bit smoother and more quaffable?

I was drinking Paulaner Hefe Weiss yesterday. It was on the next page of the list I attached but forgot to photograph it. Dangerously quaffable beer. Not at all gassy or heavy going in my opinion.

You could probably get it online or if you've got a decent off license nearby. I think it's too niche for supermarkets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richinspain Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Went to a restaurant with two other couples yesterday that we had never been to. They had a beer list with 150 different beers on it. I enjoy a beer, but haven't been partaking this year because sometimes just one glass can give me a migraine for two or three days. Having so many beers thrust before my eyes and couldn't resist trying one. The one I actually ordered was out of stock but the waiter suggested trying one that was similar. If I'd seen it in a glass I probably wouldn't have tried it, but I must admit I enjoyed it. Only had the one mind as I was tipsy after just that one.
