• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

Got loads of booze of all types left over from Christmas.
Will try and make my way through it this week 😜
Working so I won't be touching any of it, heard that the Beaufort Arms stock Proper Job on a regular basis, good to now that is, that and Timothy Taylors Landlords are probably my favourite cask ales.
Walked in Pilot Saturdays and they had Landords on had a pint went up for another and cask had gone, if I hadn't have stayed here to watch Swans and dilly dallied about going because of weather I'd have caught a few more, got a few bottles of that here though. :D
 
On a side note for pegojack, a recent survey put aldi's karlsquell clasica as best supermarket beer in a 33cl, its cheap and not too bad tbf, came out better than cruzcampo

Got some bottles of Proper Job in the kitchen, tried it but a little strong for me, I'll swap you your Guinness for them if you want?...

Thanks, Malaga. That's been my 'go to' cheap canned beer for the fridge since I've been living here. Costs about 3€80 for 12 cans.
When I want to go a tad upmarket, I go for Lidl's Perlenbacher in 500ml glass bottles.

5.6% in the bottles and 4.6% on cask, I'll stick to the cask, I may have mentioned it before that as much as I like from the bottle it plays hell with me the following day, so not bothered with the bottles since probably Christmas 23.

It's too strong for me to be honest, the London Pride was ok though 👍
 
Max, what’s the name of the bottles that you told me to look for in Tesco?

(For February).
St Austell's Proper Job, Timothy Taylors Landlords, Glamorgan Breweries Welsh Pale Ale, Conwy Breweries Clogwyn Gold, Gower Gold, Gower Power, Shipyards IPA. Adnams Ghost Ship, Oakham Ales Citra there's a few other's I've tried, but can't think of them.

I've ordered beers direct from Butcombe's, Oakham's and Conwy Breweries.

I've a Perfect Draft machine and tried lots of their kegs, ales mostly, but they do Peroni and San Miguel as well now, be ordering a few of them before the summer rush think Peroni is sold out at moment.
