This week on Lager’s Off, Dan and Martin tackle the big issues facing modern middle-aged men — namely why the Kardashians are unavoidable, how cold is too cold indoors, and whether it’s acceptable to wear extra layers in your own house. There’s also a triumphant return of the ongoing rankings, as the lads continue the serious business of sorting the best chocolate bars and crisps in the UK (with strong opinions, mild outrage, and absolutely no scientific backing). As ever, expect questionable logic, unnecessary tangents, and two blokes slowly coming to terms with winter. Beer is Hard Ticket To Hawaii by Pomona Island

Dan and Martin kick off 2026 in true Lager’s Off style with a New Year Special packed with laughs, beer tastings, and bold resolutions! The guys crack open three phenomenal brews — Arbor’s Panettone Beer, Titanic’s Plum Porter, and Anspach & Hobday’s Pfeffernüsse Stout — each bringing a unique twist to their festive lineup. Between sips, they dive into their New Year’s resolutions (and regrets), break down the latest in the darts championship, and recap the World’s Strongest Man with classic Lager’s Off banter. Whether you’re here for the craft beer chat, the laughs, or just the chaos of two blokes ringing in the new year — this episode’s got you covered. Grab a pint, hit play, and start your year the Lager’s Off way! 🍻

In the latest episode of the Lagers Off Podcast, we’re getting festive with a deep dive into Fairytale of Brew York: Walnut Whip Stout by Brew York Brewery. We crack open this indulgent Christmas stout and give our honest tasting notes, discussing the rich chocolatey flavours, nutty sweetness, and whether it lives up to the festive hype.

Alongside the beer, we tackle one of the most controversial topics of the season: the best and worst Christmas songs of all time. From absolute festive classics to tracks that should be banned from the office playlist forever, nothing is safe as we debate our ultimate Xmas hits and misses.

We also continue our ongoing mission to rank the best UK crisps and chocolate, putting more British favourites under the microscope. Which snacks climb the leaderboard, and which ones completely disappoint?

If you love craft beer reviews, Brew York stouts, Christmas podcast chat, and very strong opinions on UK snacks, this episode of the Lagers Off Podcast is not to be missed.
