I cleared the local Aldi of Tempest* Long White Cloud and Brewdog Punk IPA this afternoon - "more due in tomorrow" I was told when I enquired as to when I could get more...
*it's cheaper from Aldi than the brewery which I have to drive past on the way to Aldi.

I'm going to pop downstairs in a minute and investigate. Or is it a 'poor Scotch blokes' offer only, unavailable to Southern Soffits (like Softies - they just make you 'eave a bit more
)I'll buy some pretty bottles whatever, and join in the greed.

Hmm. No Punk, but a reasonable selection 'qualité /prix' I reckon. I bought a selection and just nose-dived into a 5% - 'Wild Bill' s IPA'. First taste is...go and buy it! I At £1.19 a pop, it would taste £5.00+ displaced to, say, The Harp (passim) a good, thick (ideal for me) malty taste and an 'orangey' - maybe that should say "citrus" in the jargon - a very decent beer indeed at the price.
Here's an overview of the brief sortie...
Dammit! I should have got some snacks!

Aldi doesn't go down well in posh Manc - I understand. But. Moving on - Marstons 'Old Empire IPA' - again at about 0.5 Mossirlamis per dose; not as nice as #1. A smoother, beer which would probably pass as a session drink. No finishing flavours of note, but a little stronger at 5.7% ABV

I think Aldi stock regional beers so Scotch beer in Scotchland and soft shandy for you Southern ponces, plus "available most places" options.

The Stranglers were wrong....DO bring Harry!
Inspired by these photos I've just scrummed down at Aldi, no Punk but everything else was bought.Hmm. No Punk, but a reasonable selection 'qualité /prix' I reckon.

Among the hardcore, I thought Thornbridge was blackballed, not just Black Harry obviously! I must be nuts.
