Lidl - 4 Franziskaner for €6

positron

While on the topic of Lidl and wheat beers, they are also selling various wheat beer glasses - tall ones, tulip shaped ones, traditional jars / mugs etc this week as their Octoberfest special. 5 euro per pack.



Tulip ones are not that heavy so feels meh, where as the tall ones are nice and heavy but looks a bit bland without any branding or badge (picture above shows badge, but none in reality). Jugs are good solid jugs, but only two in a pack where as the tall & tulip shaped ones are three per pack.

Dunnes in Swords had Franziskaner on Wed 12/10 at 5 for 10 euro. With Dunnes 20% off its 5 for 8 or 1.60...nearly as good as Lidl special 4 for 6 or 1.50 each.

Yes , when the monks had their quaint little brewery I used to travel over to Germany especially to collect a cask , I told them not to go big when the Lidl man came along , but they wouldn't listen .

If you still have the receipt, you could always return them and buy again at the cheaper price.

Prefer the Paulener personally but not much between them

I used to be a massive Franziskaner fan but now I find it a bit too fizzy and tend to buy the Paulaner instead.

Only ever see Paulaner at €2.50 per bottle (on supposed offer), Francy is selling at €1.50 a bottle, imo there isn't a €1.00 per bottle difference, I wish they were selling Paulaner at 4 for €6.00, that would be bargain of the century - ya have to go to Germany for that sort of deal !.

Not sure if it's been mentioned but you can get this 6 for €10 in O'Briens at the moment in a mix and match with other beers, which is nearly the same as the Lidl offer.

Well no, but I rounded up 9.96 to 10€ my bad, I should've rounded it down to 9.95.

Either way, point was it's close to double the price in eurospar.

Once you have the original receipt, it's easy to buy the beer at the reduced price and return at the higher price if you're so pushed.

And then buy back the beer you returned again at the reduced price!

Don't have to drink all 6 in one sitting
That's 3 litres after all.
Don't get me wrong, I love my wheat beers too but I find them very heavy, would struggle to go past 4 really.

Could be the final time ever if those pesky politicians get their way with minimum pricing, the budget is less than 4 weeks away. I'm going to take as much advantage of it as I can, treat it as a sure thing investment, lol.

€1.97 would be the minimum price of a 500ml bottle of 5% ABV beer under the current draft of the bill.

have you a link to this draft? can't find it myself.

People should remember varadkar was the idiot who initially came up with this suggestion, fully aware that it was against EU law and actively challenged in scotland, and reckoned to be illegal, but he continuted to piss away presumably hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of taxpayers money ploughing ahead with it before waiting to see what happened in scotland. Complete and utter moron.

This is not an increase in excise, the bulk of the extra money you pay is going to the supermarket or offie, not to revenue -I shit you not... this is what that stupid cnut planned all along...
