Both Speedbird and Air Craft seem to be available on BA31 to Hong Kong as well.

Apparently only three cans in CE on BA966 LHR-HAM, BoB in ET did not happen due to a catering issue.
I got one, quite drinkable but not as flavourful as I expected.

Available in CE this evening CTA-LGW. The first cabin crew member we asked thought it might be BoB only (but was going to make sure we could buy some) but was told by the CSM that it was loaded in the CE trolleys too even though not on the printed menu, so we would be getting it for free :-)

I am a rubbish beer reviewer but if anyone is familiar with Brewdog Elvis Juice it is not dissimilar in a grapefruity punch. Should have been served colder which would have helped. Not bad overall though I went back to wine with dinner.

Very pleased to see Curious as the other new beer on the BoB menu - as a shareholder in that one too my little beery investments are doing well!

Is it in any lounges then? Or just onboard?

I don't normally drink beer in the lounge or onboard (despite consuming plenty of it elsewhere) but I'll certainly give it a go if I see it at LGW GC later today.

My first thought was to "borrow" some for later from the lounge and then I reminded myself I don't even take Kettle crisps. Taking a beer would be proper stealing!

The 20 can heineken heist would pale in comparison to a Brewdog heist of today.

Tried both of the Brewdogs last evening. Speedbird 100 itself is a easily drinkable standard Brewdog brew which is quite close to Punk IPA. Air Craft on the other hand was actually quite a bit better so much so that my LGPS consumption consisted only of the predeparture glass. Highly recommended.

Any idea how long this is available? I'm looking into (economy/premium eco) flights across the atlantic in mid August, usually fly BA/oneworld, but thinking of trying something new, but the possibility of having this on the flight is intriguing and might convince me to stay.

Has anyone found any in the lounges? I'm in the CCR right now and I can't find it.

No sign in Edinburgh or Galleries F at T5.

I asked in CCR and received blank looks from the barman. Hope there’s some on our flight...

I just asked at reception to the CCR. She said only on flights which isn't what their press release said!

None in LGW GC as at 1900 this evening. I would've asked but the excellent lounge manager looked a busy chappy.

If they have it they'll display it!

Nothing in T3 GC this morning - just Heineken, Tiger, and Amstel. It was too early for drinking beer though sadly, even it had been there!
