Sounds like a great idea BUUUT - I would read the reviews about them first. If you want to support the channel, buy some merch instead - less likely to get mugged off.

[@NicoleShrinks]

I would, but I'm not keen on them sneaking the fact that it's a subscription that you're signing up to on the last page where you enter your payment details. Could've done without that.

[@9wowable]

used them about 3-4 years ago. you have to ring to cancel the subscription, and the customer services team is quite unfriendly and will make you wait on hold for awhile. beers are also pretty naff for "craft brewers" and are usually end-of-line, unsold stock or short dated. it's worth it if you can be arsed dealing with them, otherwise avoid.

@@mortoopz Honestly, even as a craft beer nerd its an insane price. Not gonna lie I would probably pay it though. As a UK craft beer drinker we don't get a lot of the obscure American brews and i have paid about the same price before. If it is a interesting as the lads say, id give it a go once, although I would have asked for a half pint! its definitely more of a beer to be tasted in a small amount. I doubt most craft beer enthusiasts would buy a pint :)

[@stephendaly5795]

The beer itself doesn't cost that much. it's importing the keg over to the UK, shipping, handling, and customs charges + currency exchange rate.This added to the cost of the keg and divided by the amount of pints per keg. This is where the £45 comes from

Spoons basically buys all the beer that has hardly any shelf life left, so get it dirt cheap as the brewery just wants to get rid of it quick. As a result it never tastes quite as nice as the 'fresh' beer and sometimes can be pretty rank as it's on the turn.

It's not true though. Some of it is the volume (although many of the other pub groups are bigger so should be able to get the same deals). Mainly it's because the company runs on smaller margins than the industry standard.

Here in Thailand, in a bar a large 600ml bottle of beer will cost anything from about ฿140 (~£3.10) upwards. But... most bars if they know you will charge around ฿100 (~£2.25) for a 'local discount'. That's still more expensive than some of the of the places you found in the UK. FYI beer is heavily taxed here, for the same price as a large bottle of Leo you can buy half a bottle of reasonably decent thai rum.
