TheTeapot Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 1 hour ago, Happier diner said: HaHa. Perhaps. Coop used to have a good selection of bottled 'ales' including landlord and citra IPAs. Nothing now, just some small tins of goose island (which is passable but too much like lager for me). No bottles at all now and it's not just here, same in small coops in the UK. There are 13 different bottled ales available today in the coop in Castletown, including Landlord. I checked. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a look today. Small selection but at least it's a selection. From Bushys at £2.69 to a quality IPA at £3.59. not cheap but then you couldn't expect it to be. Wainrights golden ale £3.29.

They didn't have the buying power of Tesco. I'd hope once Tesco are fully in control of the stock, the larger shops will be priced the same? Tesco represent the second coming of Christ and will save us all - apparently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway. Sounds expensive and I still don’t know if “small” is 330ml or 440? Edited February 17 by CrazyDave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes a bit cheaper on offer. The price for Okells at less than £2 a can doesn't seem bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
