Asda's latest ale offers ( 6th Oct - 16th Nov)

Looks like Asda have extended their '4 for £5' beer deal since the last time I reported. They now appear to have 26 different bottled ales - each bottle working out at £1.25 (this is an 'acceptable' baron price for beer - anything cheaper than £1.33 is candidate for the baron, although the aim is £1 or less).

The 26 beers are:

• Badger Fursty Ferret [baron rating 4/5] 

• Badger Golden Champion [baron rating 3/5]

• Badger Golden Glory [baron rating 2/5]

• Badger Tanglefoot [baron rating 4/5]
