Message SarkyNorthener beers 5200 º places 142 º 15:42 Sat 8/3/2013 I won’t risk having any Eastern European beers. Sometimes you can find one that isn’t at all that bad, plus even the worst beers produced in Poland or Lithuania can’t compete with their UK counterparts for shitness.

Super Zabka at the bottom of Rookery Road is well worth a go. Grabbed a new Svyturys there the other day. Supersam (also on Rookery Road) offered up 3 new ones for me too - Starovar and 2 x Sopockie, which I have just added, having tracked them down as the work of Perla (Van Pur). The Sopockie Premium was quite good. Is that Rookery Rd - Handsworth or Selly Oak? I used to get some from an off licence in West Brom, but they seem to have cut back on the variety.

Supersam and Super Zabka are both good.

Still can’t track one down.
Message mR_fr0g beers 29121 º places 44 º 15:57 Sat 8/3/2013 I was hoping that the Euston tap still had the de molen raad & daad on. I could have ordered a half on my way home. It would have been in keeping with the shitty beer night. Posh shitty beer at that.
Message DanielBrown beers 4668 º places 360 º 16:00 Sat 8/3/2013 Phew - I wish! Haven’t seen it in ages. Utenos Porter is available at Lithuanica and is a reasonable substitute. BTW did you get to Birmingham Beer Bash?

Couldn’t make the Birmingham beer bash. Had to go back home to Yorkshire for a birthday party again so turned it into a short holiday around the area. Hopefully it will be on again next year, sounded like it was a great success. Well done!

Message BlackHaddock P beers 15453 º places 1053 º 00:03 Sun 8/4/2013 Originally posted by DanielBrown I love the idea of shitty beer night. My beer hunting life often revolves around seeking out and consuming some generally terrible lager-variants. Amongst the low-lights of my recent ’terrible beer’ finds, this one is worthy of note: http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/glubczyce-specjal-ekstra-mocne/62679/7204/ Awful. I’m wasn’t even sure it was real. I thought it might be some kind of racist ploy to kill Polish beer fans. Some Polish beers are poles apart! (see what I did there?) <*))))))><

(see what I did there?) <*))))))>< According to the Office of Fake Statistics (OFS) one of the main reasons the Polish beer drinkers decided to move over to sunny England was to get away from that particular brand of lager and start a better life with Carling. They will be horrified when they find out it has finally caught up with them and is now on sale in the leafy suburbs of Shit Brom.
