Mr Perrett's Traditional Stout

Available in Tesco, this is one everyone can try (who lives near a Tesco 
).
Mr Perrett's is brewed by Wickwar Brewing Co in Bristol. It's 5.9% alcohol by volume, so not for the faint-hearted, and arrives in 330ml bottles - be careful when pouring, it's a live ale and has a sediment.
It's a powerful and distinctive stout, with lots of liquorice and chocolate (as described on the bottle), but I also thought it fruity - almost winey. It's a real smoothy too. Recommended!

No, didn't work 
They said I'd need a hose rather than a couple of wires to get one

Hmm - this could be a whole new technological breakthrough. Draught beer in the home direct from the brewery - we get water, and gas, and electricity, not to mention TV and all this internet jiggery-pokery -why not beer?
I think I feel a campaign coming on - I'm just a bit worried about who would keep the pipes clean. How is probably important, too. I shall have to give this matter some thought...

I can download music and I can download videos and books, so *why* on Earth don't they let me download a beer???
And I promise to keep the pipes clean by just creating enough traffic so that microbes and fungi won't have a chance to settle down!

Yes - I definitely like your thinking on this one.
What do we want? Downloadable beer!
When do we want it? Now!
