    Oh and good news, Beoir have 2 pairs of tickets to give away for this. I'll be raffling one off on the Facebook page but I've checked with the mods and they've said I can give one out in this thread as well. So if you want included in the draw just mention that you're going and I'll throw everyone's name into the hat closer to the time. :)

    Will be heading along!

    Trouble have an IPA series, I think. Rascal's are aiming to have some specials. Metalman have brewed their strongest beer ever. Carlow have a super hoppy pale ale which was tasting great from the tank last month. Dungarvan have kept schtum as far as I've seen, but there's something wrong with the universe if they don't have a bunch of one-offs.

    Show your card on the door. I don't think the festival has ever filled up to the point where we've had to stop admitting walk-ins, but it's probably best to get there early to be safe.

    Must say that was quick. Whoever sent it out was on the ball....a pity I wasn't, I should have signed up to what is basically free membership, ages ago.

    4th year ill be there! Could i get my name in the hat also?

    Just noticed the pricing scheme on their website. Delighted the weekend passes are back - they werent available last year? my memory of the event last year is somewhat 'fuzzy' however so i could be wrong.
    Is there any free beer bucks with the 4 day pass or only with the saturday pass does anyone know?

    :cool:

    Only plan on heading Saturday

    Can half price entrance for Beoir members only be availed of on the door? Or can I buy a discounted ticket in McHugh's (for example). Saturday tickets include two free half pints, again does this offer apply if you buy a half price ticket as a Beoir member?

    Cheers

    My project for the coming week is to find out the answer to those questions (other than "will McHugh's let me buy a half price ticket?": no, they won't.) Right now, I don't know how the entrance discount for members will work this year.

    Thanks

    Was thinking re. the two free half pints, in effect brings entrance fee down to €10

    if it's half price for Beoir then that's €7.50 but if there are no free half pints its in effect "only" a saving of €2.50

    Let us know when it's sorted anyhow!

    Yeah, I was hoping they might. It got a mention in the kilruddery market thread so I was hoping to sample it at the rds.

    Half price entry for Beoir members will apply to admission on the door on Thursday and Sunday only: €5 rather than €10. You must show your card at the admissions desk.
