I'm looking to stock up on some decent bottled lager, my favourite M&S Italian Lager is still out of stock, therefore Im looking for other options.

Has any of you tried the new Czech lager form M&S? Decent brewery and price.

Also, anyone tried the bottled lagers on offer at Aldi? The Breda, Staroslav and Bavarian?

Any other recco's most welcome :)

An interesting lager for the money (80 bottles to the vintage Krug) They've been at it for long enough - Eh ! Goose - may know something
GK - I dont have enough experience to know - but the most telling parts have got to be that Bo Ho hop variety and the artesian water.

Sorry - educational link & info though.

Cum-On G, you're a larger L...

How dare you. I am not a lager lout.

I am a Welsh oik.

I have found proof that bottled lager has a different taste to tinned.

http://www.callmethirsty.com/2010/02/04/how-bottle-color-affects-beer-taste/

Even canned Stella will taste bottled if taken outside.

As for you GK,..i'm surprised that you haven't made your own for 4p a pilfered keg.

I am a contented Stella drinker and at 62p a acan when on offer at Asda/Tesco I don't stray into cheaper alternatives.

If only I was as content with wine.

Homebrew lager can be difficult to make and takes time, that's if you dont want it to end up tasting like Stella :wink:

I've gone with the M&S Czech, got 25% off, takes the bottle price down to £1.12 +del.
