Brog I think is 3.90 before 9pm then increases then increases again after 11. But you pay for what you get, cheap horrible pints.

Lidl/Aldi for cheap booze, just supply your own glass.

What do you drink?

You'll get the most perfect Beamish of your life in An Bodhran for not much more than 4 euro.

Hogzy

Preachers do a pint of the day everyday for €3.50, Its usually one of the mainstream beers.

Price stays the same for the whole day.

mean gene

bodran 3 quid a fosters before 6- 3.80 other lagers.
grafton has carling for around 3.50

Callanans (streetview)

Very cheap Beamish, Murphy's and Heineken. (Nothing else on tap though!).

On a related note, anyone tried that new canadian beer that was brought out recently enough?

Yeah I second Callanans on George's Quay. Pints of Beamish for €3 - sorted!

Skybox

The Shelbourne on McCurtain Street has happy hour every Friday - €3.50 pints up until 8pm. They also do an offer for their Shelbourne Lager which is 3 pints for €10 for all Premiership soccer games.

Can't remember the name but I had a pint about a week ago. Wasn't to my taste.

Spotted it in the Silver Key, Molson Canadian it's called. The buddy who lived in Vancouver for a couple of years said it's pis$. Their version of Fosters.

Cape Clear

Tourburg & Fosters €3.20 in Hickeys Aherla all day everyday. A grand hospitable spot!

Yeah, it's worse than Budweiser. Like beer flavoured water.

And it has replaced Howling Gale (Co. Cork produced pale ale) in the Sextant, for shame.

That's a disgrace. A quality ale produced by a Cork based company and supporting local jobs, replaced by mass produced yellow fizz that falsely claims to be Canadian.

The Sextant has sold its soul to Molson Coors. Shame on them.

Canadian is terrible. Like Coors Light, if you need a taste comparison. Nobody with even a passing liking for beer drinks it over there.

Horgans do €2:50 pints before 7 and I think €3 after it. They are very strict about who they let into the bar though.

I'm wondering that myself, I think there's a place on Blarney St. called Horgan's, I wouldn't even go in there if the pints were free.

Bad pints?

Bradleys on Barrack St. were always known as the cheapest pint in Ireland, used to scoff Beamish there till the cows came home,hope it's still open. If not,surely some other pub on the street took up it's mantle.

Bradley's is still going alright, delicious Beamish all the time. Not the cheapest, though it certainly isn't the most expensive.

Na, it's all old people so the stout is as good as you'll get anywhere else.

I thought the Tower Bar (off Barrack St.) had the reputation for the cheapest pints, I don't know if that's true any longer.

The Tower bar is long gone.

That's all apartments now.

the beer revolu

Abbot's Ale House are doing Bitter and Twisted (lovely Scottish golden ale) @ €6.50 a litre and Zlaty Bazant (premium Slovak lager) @ €7 a litre. Usually they have a generic lager for €6 a litre.
