Don't know, but I'd say some would with a growler. Might be worth messaging them on Facebook?

It looks like the festival will not have off sale

Anyone else having trouble getting the app on the play store?

I am. It took 2 attempts to install it and now it crashes on startup on my nexus 5

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.omnicia.icbf&hl=en

Some on the thread have reported it working, it doesn't work for me. I am about to abandon work and go down for a look armed with only a few bits of paper..

Won a pair of weekend passes from McHugh's so looks like I'll be heading in again after tomorrow. Excited.

App is now working for me, thanks

Is that just for beer or do you need to pay for the food in there with tokens too?

You can pay for food with cash

I've just remembered through my hangover haze that most of white hags range is export only and not destined for the Irish market.

They are the main stand I want to go back to tomorrow. Shame about the range being for export only

drumswan wrote: »

I wonder what their thinking is? That the Irish market isnt ready for beer that interesting? That price point would rule it out?

Maybe they think they market it going to reach saturation? Everyone vying for the same shelf space.

I was in last night with the GF and we both had a fabulous time. Of those that I had...

• Jack Cody's Swiggy, a nice starter for 10.
• Kinnegar's Blackbucket was interesting; it's Rustbucket with burnt malts.
• Black Donkey; such a friendly couple and a good beer for the novice quaffer to take in. Give this 2 or three brews and it could be a big seller.
• Barrelhead's Exceptional Porter was as it claims to be and shockingly smooth as well.
• N 17's Oatmeal Stout; understated and yet a powerful brew.
• Galway Hooker. It came free with some merchandise
• Dark Arts; purely medicinal of course
• O'Hara's Wild Side. I only had a tip of this Be warned; it is nice but it's not for the faint hearted.
• Blacks Kinsale IPA. It's come on by leaps and bounds since their first brews of a year ago.
• West Kerry's Carrig. The only gravity cask beer that I saw and a quality brew, probably my favourite of the night.

We also had a sample of DJ's Festival Scrumpy and their Strawberry cider and the Armagh Mulled Wine, which they had warmed up as well. Pies as well which are well worth the €6; mash, peas and gravy are optional extras

All in all it was an excellent night; you will not be disappointed unless you wanted something specific to be there and it isn't

Lowlights were Carlows sour - terrible as many of their beers seem to be when they venture from their core range. That's it really.

What was wrong with it?
