    So I've been wondering (procrastinating at work) which festivals in Ireland have the best selection of beers/drinks? Obviously you have the usual overpriced muck at the big ones but do any festivals carry a good selection of craft beers/ciders/spirits?

    Body&Soul win hands down by letting you bring in whatever beers you want yourself (as long as they're in a can) - not just to the campsite but around the whole festival area all weekend.

    Only limit is on how much you're technically allowed bring onsite...

    Also worthy of a mention is The Beatyard which is on in Dun Laoghaire again this year. Really excellent selection of Irish craft beers/spirits/mixers. Would be hard to beat for variety I'd say...

    Probably the smaller ones where you byob, the bigger fests such as EP have corporate sponsors such as Heineken so the bars then will only be flogging their brands.


    But if you're worrying about the beer over the music then you probably will either want to call the AA or lower your standards.
