    I'm about to open what I imagine is probably one of the last bottles of Kinnegar Flying Saucer left in the country.

    I went all-in and threw a bottle of this year's 200 Fathoms into the mix as well. I have no regrets (for now... >_> )

    Yeah, huge loss. Hopefully Jay can find somewhere else to open. A dedicated independent bottle shop would do well in Bray, though I'd imagine one would still have to sell the high volume macros to make ends meet. Was never really sure about the directions the place took (coffee shop, deli, gourmet restaurant), but it was always underlined by a really good beer/wine/spirits selection, so I'd always willingly travel a few miles to shop there.

    Sorry, I meant the draught €4 options. They have a different one for €4 every day. Wrasslers is Saturday, I know that much.

    Are they the same across the pubs? I had it in my head that Wrasslers Saturday (as I call Saturday) was Central only.

    Cheers. I'm down on Thursday though and was hoping for cheap Hop Heads.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,096 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    The Porterhouse red is some fierce nice stuff.

    Tried it for the first time a few weeks ago. Will be back again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 768 ✭✭✭Uncle_moe


    Had Vocation Life and death last night and was really surprised by good it was, lots of hops up fornt and just a hint of malt to it as well.
    St Lupulin canned is well worth trying, more intensely piney than I remember.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,694 ✭✭✭ciaran76


    Pokertree's - Ghrian Golden ale : Its a golden ale and has lots of lemon peel and corander. Was a bit too lemony for me.

    St Mel's - Autumn IPA 2016 : It reminded me more of a ruby bitter styled beer than an IPA. It was nice and had a caramel taste.

    Copermaster/Stationworks - Journeyman IPA : middle of the road IPA similar to there other IPA's they have done in the past.

    It's sad that it will never be produced again, enjoyed it a lot at the great Irish beerfest.

    My local super valu was selling off Brooklyn Lager for 99c, grand sipping at that price


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,638 ✭✭✭andekwarhola


    Brehon Ulster Black Oatmeal Stout earlier. Excellent stout. Not a fan of their stuff like Stony Grey but they nail it with their plains (see also Shanco Dubh).


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,818 ✭✭✭Inspector Coptoor


    I had a can of Neon Overlord from BrewDog last night

    A chili, citrus IPA

    Nice nose, good initial taste and then the horrible clawing taste of chili to finish.

    Revolting.

    Had a lemon sour by white hag and a supernova by 8!degrees to cleanse my palate!

    I have a fresh bottle of Born To Die. This makes me very excited! Almost €11.50 for the privilege, mind.

    I have one too in the Fridge, so expensive this time. But it's my favourite European DIPA.

    Drinking a Beavertown lululoid now, decent but nothing to write home about.

    Just using up a couple of bottles of Crafty Brewing Company Irish Pale Ales I had lying around. Need to stock up with some new stuff from outside Lidl soon.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,748 ✭✭✭✭Lovely Bloke


    Magic Rock Inhaler Pale Ale

    lovely stuff

    I once got a bottle of it upstairs in An Spéir Agus An Talamh/The Sky and the Ground in Wexford. No idea where Trond got theirs though.

    Dark arts....what a beer.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,694 ✭✭✭ciaran76


    Cloudwater DIPA - v6 - this is really good got lots of mangos and Grapefruit. Very smooth for a DIPA. Possibly one of the best DIPA I've ever had.
