You forgetting the M65?
I love the track, very underrated, so if the beers as good I will buying. (For me not the whole of NOOL). It will probably go down well just like the football club relegation from the premiership.
with the size of new orders following in blackburn i think they should have thwaites
tut tut new order the yoof won't be happy

You're surprised?
Hope the beer's more memorable than the label design.

A little odd they didn't play or mention the song it's named after. I guess I should be glad they didn't use the phrase "rising from the ashes of Joy Division..."
NO certainly aren't the first band to have their own branded beer, although the only one I've ever noticed on sale in a pub is Iron Maiden's TROOPER. I didn't bother buying it though; I just snaffled some free beer mats. However until recently, it seemed to be mosty metal/hard rock bands that got involved as per THIS LIST.
NO seem to be joining a small list of artists from outside the ROCCKK genre to have their own beer along with the likes of Paul McCartney & Elbow. There's a real trend for "Real Ale" in the UK at the moment (microbreweries popping up everywhere, Real Ale tents at music festivals). The only problem I have with it is that...I don't like Real Ale/Bitter. I realise this may mark me out as a heathen, but I prefer a Kronenbourg or a Corona. I admit it; I'm a lager lout (and occasional stout lout).
For any Americans reading this who usually drink Miller, Budweiser etc, (or Germans who drink Pilsner) you might not like this stuff. It might be worth keeping in mind before trying to buy it on import for silly money. I might it try it once out of curiosity, but in truth I'll be more interested in grabbing a beer mat.
although i was pretty smashed at the time i'm 100% positive there was a blue monday ale on sale at jodrel bank
Might be of interest to those in & around the Southwark area of London. An easy walk from from London Bridge.

Already got a beer mat? Want the glass too? It's yours for ten pounds! It's microwave safe - in case you want to warm up your beer (Americans, this is an English thing!).
Has anyone here ordered Stray Dog in a pub? Did it come in a matching glass? If so, I may have to pay a visit with an appropriate bag for "borrowing" purposes.

You are quite Correct as I had a few myself. Same company as iron maiden trooper I believe.
