Just ordered this after seeing an ad in yesterday's Metro (Midlands edition). Have to remember to cancel so it doesn't turn into a monthly subscription. Looks a decent selection. Cheers!

I can't see what the selection includes anywhere? Can you confirm or post the link to contents please?

It's a mystery box, I reckon! But since it's a subscription service, they'll doubtless want to impress me with the first box in the (vain) hope I don't cancel before the second one. :sunglasses:

Not sure why this is so cold. It works out £1.50 each for the beers in Tesco's current 4 for £6 deal. Yes, Tesco do have a pretty damn good craft selection.. but the high ABV double/triple's, etc are almost never included... I saw at least two 10% beers in that gif on Honest Brew...

Tesco have... An entry level craft beer selection. But that said, the images that they show on their website are certainly above tescos level. £1.50 a bottle for potentially £1.99 - £2.79 or so reasonable deal, bit still pot luck.

even once you cancel, these companies tend to nag you to get you back etc. I ordered from naked wines once and they kept badgering me. they all rely on repeat custom hence why the opening offer tends to be a loss leader

Do some people reactively vote cold on alcohol deals?

Got one of these for my birthday and the beers were all excellent - no 'fillers' of which to speak.
I've since gone to Flavourly as they are much cheaper, but haven't been as impressed with the contents as I was with Honest Brew's.

Not sure if I speak for the cold-voters, but to explain why I was thinking about voting cold (tho I haven't), £1.50 for nice beer seems like a mediocre deal to me (I like beer, tho I'm not by any means a connoisseur!) - and decent beers are often on offer for £1.50 or less at Asda/Morrisons.
To have to bother ordering it and then cancelling from a subscription is a pain, for what (to a novice) feels like a mediocre deal is a lot of faff, and hence not a hot deal...
Not voting cold as I don't know enough - just wanted to explain why it might have gone cold initially. :smiley:

The vague delivery date puts me off. Don't want booze delivered to my workplace and I won't be home if delivered to my house
