Sweet. I'll head up there tomorrow so.

there's a 500ml bottled pilsner 5% on sale in Tesco for 1.50 or so - it's brewed in Ireland in Dundalk by Pearse Lyons Brewery with a fake Czech name - Manislav - not bad though - nice and clean with that Czech taste. Ideal Summer beer.

Had a can of OG Kush from Blacks Kinsale. Really nice bit of flavour to it.

only had a couple once - tasted fine and it was well-chilled. will try it a second time over the next while!

compared well to it's competitors in the same type and price-range I thought.

Current favorite is Splash by Vandestreek Brewing, it’s a session IPA but feels much stronger than its 4.5%, nice citrus bite to it.

With the weather lately it's been all about the Yellowbelly Castaway!

Fresh brew of this finished last week. Pouring tonight and as delicious as I remembered.

Subcomandante Marcos

Crooked Stave Hop Savant.

It's grand, but I really don't get the hype.

Drank a few pints of Running On by Dot Brew the other day. Lovely stuff.

Just need to find places other than Underdog that serve it.

OOnegative

Two Chefs Brewing Vegan Unicorn, a pale ale with lychee. Delicious stuff.

RasTa

Big fan of this lemon radler by estrella over here in Barcelona atm. Normal Estrella also lovely

Subcomandante Marcos

Larkin's Live Till You Die.

****s on every other hop forward beer ever brewed in Ireland from a height.

Dear lord it's spectacular.

I took the plunge on forking out the € 3 being demanded by Marks N Spencer for the 500ml bottle of Aspall Cider 6.8%.

Vewy tasty. I like my ciders dry and crisp. This bitch evaporates off your tongue and sthings its' way nicely down your throat. mmmmmm tres refreshing.

I can't emphasis enough the pleasure in tasting a proper dry cider. The English are good for something you know. I felt like I was in deepest Somerset devouring 3 bottles of these babies. The 6.8% gives a nice cuddly kick also.

At 1.5 litres for € 9, you will find cheaper ciders. But for me I am sick to death of drinking the plethora of schweet pish that literally swamps the Irish cider market. Please , please , please make more dry ciders, the sweet stuff is for kids.

Where did you get it? I saw it on the Channel 4 Sunday morning foodie show and it got rave reviews.
