This has typically been my observations, perhaps 60% had, but I’ve always had the beers from the breweries I liked best so… core beers or non new releases.
I gave them a chance as I needed 11 out of 12 on the box I ordered, perfectly happy with that for the price point but the muppets sent me the next days box where I only needed 5 or 6 and not from breweries I tend to like so much.
My last box is in Wooten Bassett. All our work post is being redirected there. I think they were surprised when I said I didn’t want them to forward it to me.
It looks like there are some problems with this month’s deliveries, people are reporting that Beer52 are saying that the beers have been sent to Hermes but Hermes are saying that they are yet to receive the packages. Some of these are over several days.
My son had a box delivered today and I had no problems with this months package. I still think they are decent value for the money and I always enjoy opening the box each month to see the contents.
Received mine yesterday and all were the listed beers…for once lately. I believe all are new ticks for me as well. Not sure they all fit the “Summer Haze” description.
I chose not to go for the monthly boxes and got the Cyberfest2 ones instead. I picked the Saturday box as it looked best and I saw 2 or 3 in the Friday list that I already knew. Opened it and it looked very nice.
But then they emailed to say I could have Friday too for £30 inc delivery, so I gave in - only to unpack it and realise that I’d not read the list properly, and only 7 of the 12 were new to me. Ach, whatever - it’s all good stuff!
That’s always my concern with the unknown until shipped from companies like Beer52. The Virginia box was a mess, but the last two months have been almost completely full of new rates.
