Message Leighton P beers 33700 º places 1204 º 20:29 Thu 6/18/2015 Originally posted by harrisoni Originally posted by Leighton Originally posted by Leighton Originally posted by harrisoni will be hitting the M&S Oxford Street later today. I got a big bag I reckon you will come away with at least 12-15 beers. I fucken called it. I know you, Ian Harrison. If you know me Leighton, then you should be frightened . Really frightened. I know you are a man who loves lager. What else is there?
Message harrisoni P beers 25356 º places 68 º 12:07 Thu 6/25/2015 Just picked up another 6 bottles of the M&S Oakham Double Hopped Citra IPA at 5.9%. Better than Jaipur, maybe, better than Dobber, yes, both at the same ABV, better than Punk?? At the moment, I would have to say yes. Better than Bloody Ell, yes. So is this the best IPA made in the UK right now? I think Halcyon may still be better, but that’s 7.7%. So in the 6% range with 10% drift either way i.e. 5.4-6.6% I’d have to say yes.

Message harrisoni P beers 25356 º places 68 º 03:47 Fri 6/26/2015 Originally posted by olie Is the double hopped citra bottle conditioned? Certainly no sediment in the bottles. I would imagine it was centrifuged. Not pasteurised.
Message Fin P beers 17267 º places 1653 º 15:40 Mon 8/24/2015 M&S Bicester (yes we do actually have one, a food one) has two Wild Beers on the shelves now, namely Fresh and Epic Saison.

Message stravale beers 3336 º places 1 º 17:35 Mon 8/24/2015 Just picked up a load of new M&S beers in Enniskillen (NI) today including the Double Hopped Citra - the other M&S in Athlone (in ROI) has no beer at all!
Message imdownthepub P beers 26028 º places 2088 º 02:14 Tue 8/25/2015 Picked up 8 new beers in M&S Banbury yesterday, all I could safely carry home, so there are more to go at. The new range are all in identical bottles with identical date coders, this would probably mean that they are now shipping the beer into a bottling plant somewhere, whereas before they used Brewers who could bottle themselves. This opens up opportunities to smaller Brewers, if they can match M&S exacting standards, believe me, I have dealt with them.
