I had some salt and vinegar sea brooks and they are nice
I have a fair chunk of alco free ones too. The Southwold M&S one is my favourite at the moment.
Thread could also include ginger beer. I draw the line at root beer as that is really nasty and I would rather drink a pint of lysterine (similar taste actually)

That is an amazing sounding spreadsheet weath. I also like the sound of a year of beers. I had a most unpleasant beer this evening but is probably one for the FRAD thread (especially if this thread is going to include ginger beer, alcohol free and even craft beer  )

I love beer and crisps... Not usually at 06:30, although I did have a Facebook memory reminding me of rather nice pint a couple of years ago I had straight after parkrun one Saturday as my PB prize!
(The rest of the core team were not amused and looked down their noses at me 🙄)

I also love beer and crisps. I took delivery of a Belgian beer selection box from one of our locals, 6 Degrees North, this afternoon and will be partaking of some tonight

I mostly brew my own (beer that is, not crisps!), as a hobby it seems to have got a lot of traction this year as grain is getting more difficult to source. Our house beer is a Summer Lightning clone, but I do also drink commercial stuff, having a St Austell Tribute right now in fact. I also enjoy crisps, but not a specialist on that front (Salt and Vinegar for me please).
I find I need to run to keep the weight down as the combination of the two is quite heavy in calories, so it's useful that running is another hobby

Summer Lightning is also a relatively cheap beer to make, Maris Otter grain, Challenger hops for bittering, and East Kent Goldings for flavouring, I estimate it costs about £15 in ingredients to make 25 litres!

I did a TTL that turned out alright, not quite the original, but not far off. We do live in a very chalky area though, and I tend to always use the same yeast (S04). Very drinkable though - as is the original.
Got me thinking now about making my own crisps, a new hobby for lockdown maybe
