Vocation Brewery pilsners

£2.60 each

The beautiful packaging of Vocation’s beers first caught our eye when we came across them in a certain major UK supermarket, but the brewery has recently unveiled a three-beer range of pilsners, with even more impressive can artwork than the core range. 

It seems craft pilsners and really taking off at the moment, possibly as a result of the IPA / pale ale market being so saturated, and Vocation’s beers a shining example of the movement. The Yakima Pilsner — so-called because of the addition of hops from the Yakima Valley — is our personal favourite.

LOVE Turntable 

The LOVE Turntable — which has garnered lots of support on Kickstarter — proudly describes itself as the world’s first intelligent turntable. It brings vinyl into the 21st century by being both bluetooth and WiFi compatible, and by being the first smartphone controlled record player, which can be controlled with or without its own app.
