Please recommend me a beer in Aldi :)

[gentlegreen]

I seem to be drinking beer after many years' break.
I alternate between Tesco and Aldi.

In Tesco I am able to buy "Bishop's finger" ... I'm also partial to their slightly lighter beer "Spitfire" ...

Is there an Aldi analogue ?

They sell cans of Abbot and Hobgoblin and bottles of Bishops Finger and Spitfire

Things to look out for in Lidl and Aldi if you like a fruity milkshake type affair.

Spitfire is nice enough
Summer though innit, I been getting San Miguel, £1.48 for a big old bottle

Oh yes, I think I tried Hobgoblin once ...

Thanks ...

It appears to have been 7 years since I last regularly drank beer ...

Yes it's nice I generally go for the Abbot though. I've been drinking more wine recently and they do a nice box (which also means the recycling bin isn't so obviously stuffed full of bottles

I don't go to Aldi. I'm way too posh. But in Lidl i really like Green Gecko. It's about £1.15 a bottle, hoppy. Very nice. Their own version stuff in cans is good too.

Our bottle collection day is tomorrow. Earlier this evening I put the overflowing bottle box out, along with three additional boxes of beer bottles. Nobody else in the close had even filled the council supplied box.

(this does beg the question why don't we reuse bottles rather than turning them into road covering. Earlier today the local brewery delivered 24 bottles of beer. I could have given them 24 empties back. Judging by the erratic availability of beer from that brewery, it is their bottle supply (along with bag in a box/milk cartons) which is the limiting factor in how much beer they can sell at the moment )

Top tip: wine and beer bottles go at the bottom, mayo and ketchup and curry sauce jars and cordial bottles etc go on top

we have a couple of new Aldi stores near me, haven't been yet. What's so good about it?
