    €8 for the same thing in a lot of Aldi's lately. Guinness not my preferred stout, but hard to argue with €1 per can so got some.

    Just polished off my bottle of 200 fathoms. It's really really good, gives the Franciscan Well Jameson Stout a run for its money. It was €8.49 in Bradleys.

    So you can now get whiskey aged in stout barrels, and stout aged in whiskey barrels!

    Fingal County Council are certainly not competent to be making decisions about the most important piece of infrastructure on the island. They need to stick to badly designed cycle lanes and deciding on whether Mrs Murphy can have her kitchen extension.

    Got a bottle of the Franciscan Well stout recently. Haven't tried it yet, but looking forward to comparing it to 200 Fathoms and Leann Folláin Barrel Aged.

    Caskmates is lovely. Apparently still a few bottles of it and FW's stout left in Dublin Airport so have a mate picking one up for me on the way back.

    Where can I pick up some of the Leann Folláin Barrel Aged? I'm doing a pairing of 200 Fathoms and Teeling's Single Malt for a whiskey club at work, would love to have another irish barrel-aged beer on hand.

    I don't know if they regularly stock it, but I got one last Christmas in the local Molloys - was well worth it :)

    I actually wanted to buy the last two on the shelf, but one was leaking from the swingtop... sigh

    Posted this in bargain alerts, may be of benefit to some people here....

    Just spotted this in my local Tesco this evening

    Deal on spirits (cant find a pic to link to..), buy 3 bottles of a 700ml and get 25% off. Brands I saw on it were
    • Jameson
    • Absolut
    • Hennessy
    • Paddy
    • Cork Dry Gin
    • Bacardi
    • Jack Daniels

    Can do a mix and match.

    Got 3 Jameson, theyre €27 each at the moment, so with the 25% off came to €60.75, which works out at €20.25 per bottle, which is pretty excellent. Ends on Saturday though, so only on for 3 days.

    Must pick up a bottle of that if its as good as you say! Where did you get the Franciscan Well stout, the one aged in whiskey casks? Want to get the 200 Fathoms and have been able to find it and the O Haras barrel aged, just cant find the Franciscan well anywhere. Thanks

    It was bought in the Midleton distillery for me. It might be possible to get it in the Bow Street distillery if they have a gift shop, but other than that I don't know where else it might be available in Dublin. I had a look on a few sites, Martins and McHughs are out of stock and it's not listed on Baggot Street Wines or Drinkstore's websites.

    Their much heralded 4 for 9 across most beers is now 4 for 10 across a smaller selection, I'm far from impressed.

    For Northern Irish or GB based people - in Sainsbury Armagh yesterday and they had Dead Pony Club for 85p! Wasn't marked down price with a special sticker but having looked at their website it's £1.75 there.

    Anyways they only had 1 bottle left, so near to victory yet so far!

    By the way, Sainsbury Armagh has the worst beer selection I've ever encountered in a UK* supermarket.

    *using UK to signify place of ownership of company not in any geo-political way.......

    It really does. One of the best beer and cider off licences in Northern Ireland is right opposite it but I'm only ever beer shopping in Armagh on a Sunday, when it's closed :mad:
