Default Alhambra Reserva 1925 Beer

Anyone know where i can buy Alhambra Reserva 1925 beer?

Alhambra reserva 1925 beer | Alhambra

I'm told it Spain's best beer (risk of a heated debate here!!!)

My neighbour gave me a bottle and i really liked it. I haven't looked too hard for it yet so it may be easier to find than i'm expecting.

Eroski do the normal Alhambra, and I think they do the reserva as well, check them out, I also like Alhambra, but you don't get it many places

That works out about 0-77p (UK pence) a bottle.
Are you sure it's one of Spain's best beers???
If so, cheap at the price, get to Alcampo or Eroski quick!

TBH, nope i'm not sure.

I'm not normally a beer drinker myself but i shared a bottle or two with my next door neighbour and really enjoyed it.

If nothing else, i have to get some in for when he next comes over.

But thanks all. off to Euroski this pm.

I'm sure this calls for some Market research, which I am more than willing to put myself forward for!!!

Hiper Centro have got Alambra Especial on the shelves @ 3,29 per 6 pack.

Personally, I am very partial towards the double malt Voll Damm ( bottle, not can ).

Though neither of the above compare favourably with Samuel Smiths Imperial Stout.

But NONE of the above can hold a match against the WEIHENSTEPHANER KORBINIAN beer, available in the Mombasa.

After one (large) bottle, even Brexit will seem like a good idea. After two, who cares.

I've just noticed the alcohol content on the bottle label. I imagine if you drink a couple of these then the Webcam on your screen will go fuzzy?????

No, not really. We're made of stout stuff up here int'north

(Just an aside - check out Sam smith website 'Pub management and training link' - definitely not one of your multi national conglomerates!)
