Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points

British Airways St Austell Tribute beer now for sale to drink at home

Links on Head for Points may pay us an affiliate commission. A list of partners is here.

Last week we told you how BrewDog’s Speedbird 100 ale, made exclusively for lounge and in-flight use by British Airways, is now available for purchase online.

A second British Airways beer exclusive has also turned up online.  All that unused stock needs to be sold somehow.

St Austell Tribute pale ale

St Austell Brewery offers its Tribute Cornish pale ale in 330ml cans via British Airways.  Historically, these cans have not been openly for sale and your only option for home drinking was to buy the big (too big for some) 500ml bottles or cans.

330ml cans of Tribute are now available via St Austell Brewery online – click here.

The cost is £24 for 24 cans or £45 for 48 cans.

    500ml “too big for some” HaHa, that’s not even a pint!

  • Philip says:

    Kindle Unlimited offer says 30 Day Free Trial. (And I did click through your affiliate link)

    • Rob says:

      You presumably have had a trial in the previous year?

      • Philip says:

        Nope. Have never previously even considered it. But the 2 month Freebie has me tempted. I might still give the 1 month Freebie a go. But 2 would have been better 🙁

  • Mark says:

    Thanks for the reminder about Kindle Unlimited..

  • abc says:

    I did have a free Kindle Unlimited trial just a few months ago and still could use the link to sign up for another free trial, though only for one month.

  • David R Livesley says:

    Thanks again Rob and team for another insight. One case of 24 just ordered!

  • Nick M says:

    OT – Has anyone attempted to renew their passport recently?

    My daughter’s has expired, and whilst we don’t have any trips lined up at the moment we do have family abroad and are close enough to the South coast for a day trip to France – so don’t really want to be waiting too long once we decide we need one (and I imagine once travel restrictions ease there could be a bit of a back log….)

      Friend just hers within 10 days on a normal service.

    • the_real_a says:

      Yes but had a disaster with the electronic trasnfer of photos from the photo-me booths… If you haven’t dont this before the photo booth will give you a digital code that you enter on the passport renewal form online and automatically take the photo form the cloud. There is supposed to be validation on the booth to ensure the photo is complaint with the passport agency. Except by the 5th attempt that failed validation, I scanned in the Photo on my PC – touched it up – and uploaded it which was then accepted.

      Around three weeks processing time.

    • Alex Sm says:

      I need to do it soon and checked the website. It has all the info, no specific warnings against doing so. You might be even lucky to get a burgundy one before the switch completely to blue Brexit passports

  • Crafty says:

    Free delivery too. Good deal.

  • Save East Coast Rewards says:

    Hop on Board, the LNER ale, is also available on the Rudgate Brewery website. Just like with the BA beers presumably they have stock to shift due to LNER suspending catering during this crisis
