Apparently Lidl have some NEIPAs this week... not sure what they've got, but my OH took a half day from work to make sure he could get to Lidl and buy some.

Overtone are located just 5 minutes up the road from me... Scottish breweries don't usually do it for me, but I'm pretty impressed with Overtone.

Yeah it's Lidl craft beer week (again). Imagine it's hit and miss as usual but Scotland does seem to get better than we get down here lol

You must be located right near my beer mate as he's 5-10 minutes away crom them too!

I'm in Dalmuir in Clydebank, and Overtone are in Yoker... where's your pal located?

OH brought me a few beers from Lidl... currently drinking Luminous Nights by  71 Brewing in Dundee. It's a pretty nice 7.4% NE DIPA.  It's not outrageously good, but £1.99 for 440ml??  Yeah, I'll drink a lot of that! :)

£5/6 is pretty average for non supermarket craft beer to ve fair. You can get smaller breweries for like £3/4 and more rare/sought after for more so i'd say £5 - 6 is more average but if you homebrew one please send  me one
