In Molloy's ballyogan today they had some trouble brewing and ballast point beers short dated for €1 each

Sir Galahad

Supervalu had "La Unica" a Spanish red for €20 ! It retails at €80 in Spain and £105 sterling. They had very limited stock. I now have a "good" stock to lay down.

Anyone care to rate these? I have a €10 off €50 voucher. Have had the Caskmates IPA before and was quite taken with it. Am thinking the Stout and Blackbarrel for €45 is the way to go.

Haven't had the Caskmates but the Crested I would recommend along with the Black Barrel

The Crested is a really nice whiskey but is often on offer... makes more sense to try the Black Barrel and Caskmates Stout.

I like the stout it's very smooth and nice to drink neat

Was in my local Lidl earlier. Big bunch of wine reduced to €5 a bottle to clear. Mostly decent stuff too, from their occasional range: a Bordeaux AOP (had it before - nice), a Castillon, a Madiran, a Cotes du Rhone Villages (having it now - lovely), a Loire white and one or two others, plus some from the core range. The occasional stuff would have retailed at €10 - €15 originally in my experience.

6 cans of Helles lager by Larkns for €10 in Carryout Clongriffin.

They also have Stone Scorpion Bowl IPA (750ml) for €5 (was €3 the last time it was on special)

Ryath

Guinness West Indies Porter is 4 for €9 in Lidl.

Assume most posters here follow the booze alert thread in Bargain Alerts but if not.

Franziskaner is back on 4 for €6 from Thurs 4th - Wed 10th April - lidl

Got a bottle of Black Bush yesterday in Tesco, €26

I had a 5 off 25 voucher, so got it for €21... now that's a bargain.

I was thinking of getting a Black Barrel, but it was a silly price something like €42. Should've got one when one of the supermarkets had it for €30 a while back.

I’m hoping the Tesco whiskey offers will be back for Easter. Got a Created and a Black Barrel for €40 with a €10 off voucher. And I still have one voucher left...

Picked up a 4 pack of Jet Black Heart in Tesco for €6, was the last pack of 4 with 2 loose cans beside it that looked like they were on the verge of exploding, mine seem fine so I'll find out when opening later lol

Johnny Drama_11

My local tesco ( Clarehall) have some vocation cans on special (€1.61 - €1.71).
Hurricane by 8° €1.73
Carraig bottles €2

None in the Blanchardstown store this evening. Might save someone a wasted trip.

Obviously wont suit everyone, but a good few boxes sitting in the one in Dalkey.

I called into the Carlow store last Friday and they were all gone, but they are getting more in mid week. Dated BB July.

Not sure if it's been posted here before, but Guinness Citra IPA is €12 for a case of 12 bottles (33cl) in O'Briens at the moment. A solid (if not spectacular) IPA at a a really good price IMO.

Citra is a nice drop from a macro. Would happily have it over The blandness that is Hop House. Will pick up a couple of cases to go with my brewdog packs.

It's nice alright, hasn't a patch on the Galway Bay Citra (weights and measures, I think?) which is dynamite. Easily the nicest Citr I've had and one of the better IPAs in general, IMO.

W&M is €4 a can though.

This place seems a bargain if you get the right waiter :D

A well-known scam, nearly got caught out on a work trip in Spain once.

The most expensive bottle on the list was about 20 times the price of anything else, which struck me as very suspicious, so as soon as the bottle came out I was on the lookout for it.

If it'd been opened they'd have stuck us with the bill and I wouldn't have fancied having an argument with the Guardia Civil over it.

Short dated (end of June) brewdog punk IPA 330ml bottles are €1.77 in Tesco Midleton today.

Brewdog 12 packs back in stock in my local O’Briens. I bought another 2 just in case.

None in Athlone did manage to get the last case of the Citra though. Would have much preferred the Brewdog though. Sales assistant didn't think they'd get anymore.

No Citra in my local and guy behind the counter didn’t know about the deal. And that’s what I went in for.

Roc modern pils by white hag only €1.40 a 330ml can in my local tesco (clare hall). Plenty of stock.

Get them delivered online?

I should have but it's not on their site now. Managed to get what I was told was the last case in Athlone yesterday.

Might just take a trip up north to stock up on Elvis Juice that's what I mostly wanted the case for. £1.65 a bottle or 4 for £6 up there. Like punk too but the other two beers in the pack wouldn't be my first choice. Still grand to have though with a curry or bbq.

Got some Brown Bear DIPA yesterday in Aldi for €1.99/500mL, same price as their IPA but this one is 7.5%! Nice too.

Sierra Nevada California IPA €6.74 for 4 x 355ml cans in my local Tesco (Balbriggan)

Titos vodka was €24 in tesco ballybrack, only 1 bottle was left.

Ketel one was €28, fair few bottles

This bacardi was 16 something and was the full 700ml

https://www.thespiritsbusiness.com/2015/05/bacardi-unveils-cinnamon-spiced-rum-spirit-drink/

had loads of bottles.

tanqueray 350ml was 10 something.

Plenty of others were reduced too, like they were doing a big clearout and I would guess it is particular to that shop.

Similar in the Tesco stores I've been in in the past week. Picked up Plymouth gin for €17.39, Bulleit Bourbon for €25 and Dungarvan blonde ale for €1.65 a 50cl bottle.

Many of these offers appear to be store-specific; I guess different stores are delisting different products.

Wild Turkey Bourbon €20 in Tesco Kilbarrack down from €33, reduced to clear.

Random Tesco's seem to be selling off random craft beer cheaply. Are these just stock that isnt shifting?

Not short dated as far as i can see. 8 Degrees 33cl €1.40 in tesco parnell st today.

I think they just clear the shelf space for incoming stock.

Picked up 3 bottles of Boodles Gin in Tesco at €12.80 a bottle down from €35

That's it to the best of my knowledge, they've been doing it on average once a year in recent years.

Tesco clarehall have O'Haras dry hopped lager for 1.20 a bottle (500ml). Marked as 1.67 but scans as 1.20.

Any good 12/24 bottle slab of beer bargains around . Craft or big brew names...

Walsh's The Irishman Founders Reserve whiskey is €30 in Dunnes - normally €35 but if it was an Irish Distillers product they'd be looking for more than that! This is a seriously good whiskey.

That’s a quality drop. Currently my favourite of the cheaper jemmies.

likely a fathers day offer, not sure if there is a tradition of that, though you would think it would stretch to sat or sunday. I think I saw baileys cheap near mothers day.

For rewards customers they've sent a code for €5.00 off €25.00 so the above for €20.00, not sure if code is individual or universal.
