Last time I had a pint of HSB was in the Still & West in Portsmouth many years ago. Got absolutely hammered - marvellous night walking back to digs in Southsea
Teleman,
Fuller’s produced HSB in bottles for their 2024 Advent Calendar Beer Box and, it was so popular it has been available from their online shop!
I couldn’t find it on draught when I was in London last year!

Just went to order some and it’s out of stock 
Thanks for the heads up, I’ll keep checking back.

Hi Teleman,
OK, I added my name to 'notify me when it’s back in stock ’ list. A few years back, it was sold in those 9 pint mini-kegs!
Ofiaich!

Within reason, what is on offer.
I’ve had periods of sampling whiskies ( around Christmas is when they cut each others throat on the supermarket shelves). Wines, when 25% off for six bottles allows to spend more than you would but get an idea if it’s worth that extra few quid once the offer is over.
Beers? I may have a poor palate but, having tried, I don’t get it.
My first job after leaving school was at MOT testing beers for excise duty. Yer 17 years old and have access to every beer that enters the Uk? I was blessed. Having sampled the best of the rest of the world, and a few of our local products I’m underwhelmed. I think we prefer the effect and cover that up with nonsense about the taste😀
Looking forward to a pint of draught Bass on Thursday at NEM meeting. Not many places I can find it on draught in Nottm.
I don’t notice it having been weaned on the stuff but people elsewhere in the country reliably inform me that Burton beers “smell of eggs”.
That’s pretty much the after effect it has on me🍻
