I get this message when i click on the link

MySQL Query :

I will give it another go tomorrow. JAB i assume it is some sort of voucher for a free dram in a pub.

Welcome to the forum Lucas.

I think it is a great offer (when is a free malt not a great offer) but i am not really a pub type of person much nowadays so not an offer i will be claiming.

Welcome to the SMW forum Lucas

Yes a clever promotion from Daigeo with christmas coming up, giving the average pub punter a taste of something special other than what they may normally drink from the gantry of the pub.

I am sure it will generate a few bottle sales as they are all whiskies that most people would enjoy.

Smart marketing, i am sure they will hook a few customers for life.

marketing or not i wont say no to a free malt whisky in a pub especially at the prices you can pay in pubs, cheers JAB

Thanks for the link! Talisker is by far my favourite but I think I'll probably be trying the Glenkinchie as I wouldn't normally buy it.

JAB · Posted: Wed Oct 20, 2010 9:27 pm Post subject:

Yes i will be doing the same trying something a normally wouldnt, any one else have any good finds recently?

It does resemble their mass JW tastings they do all over the world actually. Sometimes it's scary how good they are at what they do Wink

Thanks for the welcome, guys.
