There were ciders as well, and the hostess provides spirits.
If push came to shove, you could always pop over to the 24hr Spar shop in T1 arrivals as they have a decent enough chilled alcohol selection. Probably half the price of a hotel bar as well.
Added: busy checking in at 3:45pm or so.
Upgraded to a 4th floor king room with lounge access.
Left my card open for incidentals and they've managed 4 x £50 holds on that.
No complementary water in the room, but I'll get that from the lounge (did get a pineapple juice earlier, but there's no bottle opener in the room, and I left mine back in my car. Improvised with a spoon.)
No mention of points or breakfast even though i was welcomed as a diamond member.
