Hi

Does anyone know where i can get VB from in the UK. I've tried Asda, Tesco's, Morrison's but no luck. Does anyone have any idea's , as would love to buy some for Hubby for xmas, so he can get into the Aussie mood.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Paula

Yates's pubs were doing them as a line quite a few months back now, and I managed to pick mine up at the local beer cellars, they are readily available throughout the UK, as are crown lager and James Boag's. I think you may just have to ask your local cellar to get them in for you....

Any good software retailer would sell you it, but you would be better off learning Java or C#


Sorry, geek joke,

off to shop this afternoon so will look for ya!

Sitting here drinking VB as we speak, couple more in the fridge too! Might finish em tonoght.

u can get it in the merry monk pub in isleham, a tiny village 6 miles from newmarket

Hi
Thanks everyone. Will try my local wine/beer seller this week.

Mutant - enjoy your VB,

JTL - sorry, your joke was wasted on me

Thanks again
Paula

I will try, it is OK but I only buy it cos it is $10 for 3 800ml bottles at the local fridge barn.

Discussed a while back I think......

amongst the waffle theres some actual info!!!

Our local pub sells it so bring him to York for the night instead and let him drink til dawn!!!!!!!

Why on earth would anyone want to drink the disgusting filth that is VB in the UK?

It is bad enough having to drink the rubbish in Oz. Make the most of Stella, Kronenberg and decent English Ales whilst you can.

I recognise that deal! May have only been here for a month but I've bought into that vb deal once or twice! Yeah, it's ok but would rather have a bit more flavour.

In answer to the question, they used to sell it in my local Sainsbury's. it was expensive though! And it was obviously brewed under licence in the uk (well better than not under license I suppose). I've also seen it at local "corner" shops.

To be honest, VB is pretty mediocre but it's got alcohol and if you keep it cold then it rocks!

Too true! Although, if I went into a pub and they were serving it I would probably have one for nostalgias sake. But only one mind you Then back to the Speckled Hen, Abbot Ale...

Thanks Pollyana, just been on the thread, appartently Asda have done it, think i'll ring them.

I do not drink beer myself, but is it really that bad!!!!!!!! Hubby thought it was alright.
Thanks again Paula
