I went through the whole “I need one of these” then decided against it because of the cost. Then I looked at the Perfect Draft which was even more money.

The Pinter looks like it could be the winning formula, but until they can produce a unit that refrigerates the beer, that’s no good either.

In the end, I just bought a Sub. Yes it’s an expensive way of drinking at home, but I’ve not had a holiday for over two years so I though “**** it”. (edited)

Yeah sold mine in April for £130. Paid £70 on a black Friday deal a couple of years ago. I now have a Perfect draft now. Alot better in my opinion.

great deal, people on this website always seem to downvote anything to do with the sub and complain that its too expensive compared to supermarket cans. It's honestly like comparing apples and oranges. The beer from the sub kegs is vastly superior. For example the Heinekin kegs are brewed in Europe and are far nicer than the p*ss in the english brewed cans you can buy from supermarkets.

Must say I love my sub, but couldn't afford it every weekend. Great for special occasions

Love my sub and it’s a good price at the moment but have moved on to my Pinter will have to get a co Pinter soon!

People can keep dissing these subs, but the actual truth is they are VERY popular and they fly out the because the demand is so high. The variety across ales, lagers and cider surpasses the competition too.
Personally if you know anyone on the European mainland you can collect from, then you will save a small fortune. For now, the quality of beer I get is so high, I’m happy to also swallow a slightly galling cost. I’ll never drink a can of beer again.

I highly recommend the Hapkins!

Sub is good value for money and the best draft system for beer enthusiasts who want to balance draft quality vs getting to have more variety of beer. 2L keg is basically 6x330ml or 3.5 pints. No having to get through 5L of the same beer. Given some of the beers available and the abv the beers value can be quite good actually depending.

Sure some are more expensive like chouffe and delirium but compare to the 6x330ml price online of those beers and it's about the same but it's draft quality and there are plenty other options much cheaper.

If you want to just drink cheap pißwasser stick to
UK brewed lager cans from the supermarket.

I can't buy my fav la Chouffe anywhere in the UK, let alone Hapkins etc. I do like a strong Belgian beer and the perfect draft variety choice isn't that great, unless you are into IPA.

So yes this deal might look ludicrous to most but to some it is something out of the ordinary that they enjoy.Read lessRead more

La chouffe is excellent, bought one to try as a treat and became an instant favourite.
In my opinion the sub is perfect for the Belgian blondes. Perfect size.
The Lente Bock is also good for a tenner.

Voted hot as a deal is a deal, however for those that don’t like desperados you can get any combination of birra moretti and Heineken for 93p more.

Hahaha. Horrendous pricing.

Really?? It was the desperados putting me off getting it

Big_Rik29/06/2021 16:23

Actually my mistake. Heineken is 8.49 and the moretti is 8.99 (there is a different moretti for 8.49 though)
Free shipping when you buy 8 beers

Saw this - never tried the desperados, can anyone share their thoughts?

It's the size of the kegs that steer me away, they are to small.

I saw this and laughed. My order last week had less than 2 months date in them so hopefully some short dated deals soon.

Ludicrous price

I disagree.

I've owned a sub and now own a perfect draft. The perfect draft constantly gets voted hot. Imo the perfect draft is better then the sub.

That's one of the main issues... finish work nip to tesco and pay £8.50 for one.... that would be fine... but having to pre plan and spend over £60 on beer just so you can use it again I'd rubbish

Lowenbrau, Belguim Stella, Spaten, Leffe, Juliper, Hertog Jan ain't IPA's

Lowenbrau, Belguim Stella, Spaten, Leffe, Juliper, Hertog Jan ain't IPA's

Agreed they're not IPA, but they are not Belgian abbaye either (apart from Leffe, which is superb), rather mid alcohol content lager to my taste around the 5% abv mark. Nothing wrong with those beers but I prefer a strong refermented one (I wish the Leffe was available on the sub, I'm actually considering the perfect draft just for it!!!). That's why I like the sub, a 2 litre keg at 8% plus like a Hapkins is more than enough to handle for a session (for me anyway, I'm a lightweight!). Each to their own, whichever beer dispenser you choose you pay over the odds for the beer. My main point is the shocking lack of choice in UK considering what you can get in mainland Europe. Brexit is probably not gonna help my case to get more choice at a reasonable price!

If these were as good as the comments make them out to be the manufacturers of the dispensers and the brewers filling the subs would be mass marketing them everywhere at half the price.

Absolute no logic in that statement.
Why would their quality have anything to do with reach of distribution and price of product?

The very fact they are ridiculously popular while maintaining an inflexible price point is reason enough that they are fantastic machines.

I meant good in the desirability and value of the product - ie it doesn't have mass market appeal hence the extortionate price of the unit and very limited availability along with high cost of the beer.

If it was all it's cracked up to be every supermarket chain would be flogging the system and we'd all be beering it at home that way.
