    The Lion Brown 440ml “Brown Bomber”

    For reasons scarcely believable, Lion Breweries has permanently discontinued the 440ml Brown Bomber.

    The 330ml will continue to be available but we all know that’s just not the same.

    This is the most serious news yet in a world of continual bad news.

    RIP Brown Bomber. You have lubricated & refreshed many a hot and sweaty worn out middle-aged ale drinker.

    The lady at the call centre suggested I switch to craft beer which was the last straw!
    @Dundee… we need to arrange some industrial action.

    My tastebuds are very finely tuned.

    Double Brown, Speights, that filthy river water that flows through Hamilton, none of it comes close.

    I am now seriously considering home brewing.
