Back to Speedbird100, it was freely available on BA1470/BA1471 to Inverness and back in CE, but not in huge quantities. I was the only one drinking it I think and I had 3 on the round trip.
I suspect it was; we were pretty much right outside I think ☺️

Interesting, last week in CE I was advised in no uncertain terms that this beer was purchase only in ET , they could bend the rules and sell me a can in CE if I wanted.

Same experience yesterday on RAK-LGW in CE. Kind of a disappointment.

Managed to try some on tonight’s BA56. Apparently only one bottle or Air Craft loaded but I really like it. Managed to nab a couple of cans of Speedbird too.

Beer Geek in search of Brewdog in F

As a self confessed beer geek Im always in search of a unique beer. Today I noticed that Brewdog (Overworks) is providing a wild ale IPA beer that is only available in First to long haul destinations. I was hoping someone would be kind enough to collect one for me on returning to the UK. Im based in London and will happily collect or arrange shipping from your home/work place and send some thank you beers or whisky samples in return. Sample pic attached.

I can’t help you with acquiring one but I did have it en route to Boston last week.

Very nice I must say!

Speedbird 100 IPA is now available in T3 and T5 Flounges, it will be available in CCR later today. No lounge news on Air Craft however.

I'll have to take your word for it (and I do), but you need a better phone camera with auto-focus!

Yes I realised that shot wasn't too good after I had repaired to my usual watering hole, and my dedication to this forum didn't extend to going all the way back again....

I just assumed that c-w-s (who I know is teetotal) was capturing the genuine experience of over-imbibing the new beverages!

I've got no BA flights this month, what chance there will be any left come June! And yes, the Brewdog shop is still out of stock it seems.

Yep. I tried this one last night too. Very nice. I did keep the bottle but smashed in the car on the way home this morning. :-(

I snagged a couple of cans f Speedbird on the LHR EDI last night, and the CC gave them to me unopened as requested (driving home after landing). Will enjoy them this weekend.

Surprised - and not surprised - to see this though: https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/113748974780?chn=ps

I flew in first to JFK last week; wish I had known about the bottled one then
