For a few years Alko, the domestic supplier, has provided monthly “special batches” – divided to beer, wine and harder liquors, which are released on the first Thursday of the month.
The selection themes have been rather variable, ranging from severely unnecessary (milkstore-ABV’d beers) to really interesting (european IPAs from odd countries). The special batches have also replaced the annual “craft beer months”.
August theme is on the limp side, opaquely termed “low alcohol choices” has two beers that are easily available in any well-equipped stores, a sour that I wasn’t that fond of, a low-voltage gin’n’tonic and fortunately also two actually worthwhile entries – both previously unsighted session IPAs.
