Not sure how it is in London, but where I'm at you certainly can't run down to 7-Eleven and expect to choose a beer. Your options will be limited to a handful of mass produced beers supplied by large distributors. I keep a mental list of shops with decent microbrews.

This product seemingly takes the hassle out of deciding whether traveling the extra mile and back is worth it for a unique beer. There's no hate specifically for Red Stripe.
