Great price for a truly great beer - Delirium Tremens, currently available instore (not online) at M & S.
These beers are £2.40 each, but if you buy 6 you get 25% off until Monday, making them £1.80 each or £10.80 for 6.
Full price of £2.40 is actually already a really good price as these would usually be £3-3.50 from a specialist beer shop in the UK, but at £1.80 it is a fantastic bargain.
I appreciate £2.40 maybe to some still expensive for 330ml, but these are 8.5% and is a top rated Belgium beer and have been voted the best beer in the world.
These are not a beer you would usually find in a supermarket and generally would have to be purchased from a specialist online retailer or to get them anywhere £1.80 each would involve buying them direct in bulk from Belgium. So you have a great opportunity here to buy just a few to try at an exceptional price.

Disturbing name for a beer.
It's like calling a soft drink 'diabetes'.

A must try beer, one of the best, though I liked the Christmas Ale and agreed normally about £3 a bottle, so a treat at £1.80.
Wondering if you bought 3 sets of dine in with 6 beer would the both discounts kick in?

Seems odd for M&S of all places to be stocking beer with such a bizarrely sick name! What next, "Vomit Vodka" or "Wet-the-bed Wine"?

Yea, expensive way to find out you may not like it. Sounds like Innis & gunn territory. At least that IS nice.

Innis and Gunn I loved it when I first tried it, the second time I hated and have ever since. I think it was down to it tasting quite different but then I realised actually I don't like this.

Wonderful beer and roughly translates to the trembling madness. Very good price. Hot

Indeed definitely an ironic name, certainly if you get hooked on this to the point of your GABA receptors down regulating, then when you try and quit you get the most horrific anxiety known to man and quite possibly death from seizure as your brain doesn't have enough receptors available to calm the brain down. Meaning even if you want to quit being an alcoholic you can't as it will kill you, so you need urgent medical attention at this point. Must be hell if you have to detox in prison for example.
delirium tremens
ˈtriːmɛnz,ˈtrɛ-/
noun
a psychotic condition typical of withdrawal in chronic alcoholics, involving tremors, hallucinations, anxiety, and disorientation.
Welcome to hell. Certainly an outrageous name for a beer, maybe if you've suffered the condition you can have a laugh about it later, who knows depends on your sense of humour :smiley:
Here's some one quitting benzodiazepine medication (Valium and similar drugs) which has a similar effect to quitting alcohol >
