Bottled ale is great if you can find it, so hats off to all the major supermarkets – they do a very good selections: Morrisons are good for price but their range is limited. If you really want to get some ale, try Ocado – the online grocery company. Research into bottled ale was made very easy with Ocado. I think I ordered over 20 different varieties in my first order… Badger, Greene King, Fullers and Adnams to name but a few.. and it was all delivered to my door with no delivery charge.. I am sure the driver thought I was an alcoholic.

I know the Head of Trading at Ocado and he is ranging new ales all the time.. I think they are up to 30 varieties now.. all well priced – and the new stuff generally goes on offer.

Nice one Ocado – keep them coming!
