I had a Hitachino Nest Japanese Classic Ale in Yamamori on the north quays in Dublin there yesterday. Very nice...an interesting version of an IPA.

Ola Dubh is rocking my world of late, an 8% dark beer matured in Highland Park scotch casks. Haven't been searching long, but it's €8-9 per bottle in the places I have found it, so I don't get to stock up on it. Really rich sweet beautiful taste, great with food.

what size bottles are 8-9 euro?

Budvar at the moment as it's easy enough to get in most places.

Really appreciating Perlenbacher Premium Pils at the moment, great value for money, nice 500m bottles also. Just nice back to basics old fashioned beer!

Its like the gift that keeps on giving.

P.S. When I can get it I drink VB but its not stocked anywhere close.

Tiger Beer is quality, but got a load of Stella Artois at a good price last week and it's not the worst!

As David Byrne might say 'Same as it ever was'. Fransizkaner at a nice €1.86 in Lidl.

Deuchars IPA - the king of all ales!

If you like that you'll really like Galway Hooker. I buy Deuchars IPA in bottles only because I can't get GH in bottles.

Goods Store IPA, back on cask at the Bull & Castle this evening. I'll be sad when we have to say goodbye to it forever.

Great will get some this evening:D. But why stop produce it,is it part of the move?

Its fantastic when in top condition, it could give Sierra Nevadapale ale a good run for it money

Sort of. It was the last beer brewed at the Goods Store, in a single batch. I think there'll be another very similar beer produced at the new brewery, but it'll be mostly for keg. Hopefully there'll be a few casks knocking around too, though given the explosive qualities of the dry hops in Goods Store it's not likely to be as hoppy, unfortunately.

I'd guess that a cask or two may be left over for the Franciscan Well Easter Festival.

Picked up a few bottles of Flensburger Gold down my local offie last evening. After the first getting to know you bottle it was quite nice tbh. Still doesn't overtake my regulat tipel Duvel but it's a nice change.

Two days ago I found Ola Dubh much closer to home for much, much cheaper (€4.99 for a bottle of the matured-in-16-year-old-casks version, I shan't be shopping in the OTHER place again!).

They also had Old Engine Oil, a really lovely thick dark beer with a surprisingly bitter aftertaste. I'm torn as to which I like most.

BeerNut

Ola Dubh is Old Engine Oil, barrel-aged. They are both great in their different ways, though. Some great prices on Old Engine Oil at the moment: I've seen it for €2.50 and less in some offies.

Grolsch at the moment:D

"24 x.500 cans JCs Swords 5% Abv for €24.
