Here's hoping they find the culprits. Have ordered gifts for people from Ales by Mail on a number of occasions, they have been unfailingly polite and efficient.

It shouldn't be too hard to locate someone trying to sell that much beer. And offbeat ones at that.

The devil did it I divided the 16,000 bottles by 24 to a case and ended up with 666.666!
Too bad that I think they where bombers which are 12 to a case, scum none the less

Actually I think the Brewdog Prototypes are only in 330ml bottles (that's the Hobo Pop, Interstaller and Brixton Porter). I've only ever seen Brewdog in 330ml and 660ml bottles regardless. The Interstellar and Hobo Pop are both really good, not managed to try the Brixton Porter or Moshi Moshi yet though!

I guess still 24 to a case though, BBC will have rounded it off... That's assuming they know exactly how much has gone.
