New Partnership - ABK Beer


Recommended Posts


For info.   I ordered 24 of the ABK Hell for £37 (plus £6 shipping).

They have already been dispatched so I should be able to provide a quality report in a day or so!!!

I have no experience of this supplier, but they offer a mixed case (plus a tankard) and free delivery: https://shop.rokitdrinks.co.uk/beers/12-pack-mixed-case-with-tankard#12-pack

It’s available at four pubs in the Scale Lane area of Hull’s old town. That’ll do for me once dry February is over 😂

And all close to what was a rocking night out, Beer Keller on Bishop Lane and also OF’s starting gate for the match, 3 John Scott’s.

4 in York.

Oldest brewery in Germany, i think or one of them. Dunkel is a winter favourite! 

Pretty sure that honour belongs to Weihenstephaner. They celebrate their millennium sometime this century.

A selfless task mate - thanks for taking one for the team! 

All I will say is...

They do seem to be getting a bit of a foothold in the Hull area but I wouldn't get too excited, mate. By German standards I find their beers pretty mediocre. Their wheat beer is one of the blandest I've ever tasted.

That's just my palate though, other people might enjoy them and they're a decent commercial partner to have on board.

I like the Hells and the Kellerbier. I don't really go for wheat beer or dunkel so I can't comment.

I imagine it's the Hells that will be getting the push primarily, I can see people taking to it.

I was born to run a club like this. Number 1, I do not spook easily, and those who think I do, are wasting their time, with their surprise attacks.

It's one of my favourite beers (along with a dozen or so other German ones but still). If anyone is near a Booths you can pick it up in there. 

Yep , have had the full range of ABK on draught in my local a couple of years ago , best lager I have ever supped......and I usually drink ale but tried these and was really impressed.

That was the place i remember now laugh and a half:)Scamps was hilarious everyone wanted Alvin Stardust and Gary Glitter where discos down south were more into Motown soul etc 🙂

 

Scamps burned down some years ago.  Not sure what happened to Hofbraus but I do remember the headaches I had the morning after.

I also remember the nice people who used to bring the schnapps around 😉

Perished in the same mysterious blaze. It had become a Dingwalls music venue by then and Scamps had been relaunched as Odyssey.
