Bought these bad boys in Lidl on friday. Really nice.
Would recommend!
They also do stout and ale.

Did you ever try 12 acres pale ale? They are from around your neck of the woods, Killeshin.

I can only please one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look good either

Speaking to a make who has about 10 pubs in north england and they wanted to bring in Peroni, the distributors only allow it sold if it was a pound dearer than the next lager as they want to market it as a 'premium' brand. Such a load of w**k for the Fosters of italy.

You're drinking too many of them.

What's the yellow stuff from Guinness like? Hopefully nicer than Breo.

Very good, I was surprised to find. I'm not a lager drinker, but decided to try it based on the name (I assume you're talking about Hophouse 13)and it worked for me in that it doesn't taste like lager at all but is just a very hoppy beer. Really good taste.

Fantastic beer.

Is it only on draught? can't seem to find it in any off license

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, either in bottle or draft, absolutely heavenly on the tastebuds.

Bud Light I also enjoy.

Shocktop (Belgian) with a thin slice of orange on top is also divine.

Probably my favourite beer as well.
I don't see it too often on draft, but a lot of off licenses are starting to stock it.

"absolutely heavenly on the tastebuds" and "devine"...........There used to be a time only men drunk beer ! ;)

A while back I sampled a couple of beers brewed by Blacks Kinsale.
The Kinsale Pale Ale (bottled)  was delicious, lovely fresh hoppy flavoured. Their IPA,  Blacks IPA (bottled), I thought was too bitter, over hopped and bitter. With IPA, I suppose my preference is for dry hopped, freshly brewed, on tap. drunk before it gets old and bitter.
