    Cheaper on eBay if you've got Plus with "POUR5": https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Brookvale-Union-Ginger-Beer-12-P…

    I've given up on these as it's too expensive for the alcohol %. It's much better value to get a bottle of mezcal and mix with regular ginger beer and taste, well I can barely tell the difference.

      I didn’t realise people buy based on alcohol content, thought that was a hand gel thing lol

        Well that's what is costing you the money. So may as well get the most out of it.

          Well that's relative right? Personally I drink maybe 1-2 ginger beers a month, likewise for beer, and maybe 1-2 bottles of wine including cooking, if you don't drink a lot, then 70 dollars every 6-12 months for a good stock of great tasting ginger beer is going to be a decent price to pay. If you drink daily or prefer to binge on weekends, then it's going to be an expensive habit.

          • @boredofficeworker: Considering it's the same alcohol percentage as regular beer but almost twice the price, why wouldn't you mix your own? It is supposed to be a bargain forum. But 1-2 a month? Why even bother with the alcoholic version? I don't drink much at all but 3 or 4 gb's and I barely feel the effects after a big/hot day.

              @Mechz: Because while you may not be able to tell the difference between a postmix and a brewed ginger beer, for me it's night and day. Alcoholic ginger beer, like alcoholic beer and alcoholic wine, tastes different from the non-alcoholic versions, it's pretty subjective. Also, that's the beauty of Ozbgargain, those of us that enjoy a Brookvale can deem this to be a reasonable bargain (I've seen it cheaper, but I'm out, so timing is good), while those who are simply after the cheapest possible price to drink ginger beer wait for a better option I guess. If you posted a deal on Mezcal, I'd be equally uninterested :)

    • Mezcal? Why Mezcal?

      • Just seems to match for me and it's what I had in the cupboard. I also have some 42 Below honey-vodka I might try.

  • Does anyone know if this stacks with the AMEX spend $100 for $20 back? - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/530719

      Just tried it and confirm it works

  • How does this compare with Matsos. Can't imagine anything coming close?

    • I find them both pretty similar, low alcohol content makes them pretty easy to drink.

      I prefer this to the Matsos. Same as most booze I guess - you like the taste of what you like.

    • most people couldnt imagine covid 19 shutting down the world. Seems like a lack of imagination amongst us all
