5 litre kegs of beer at Superquinn €9.99

The tax man

As the title says. Kegs on offer are Heineken, Grolsch and Warsteiner. Reduced from €19.99 down to €9.99.
Might be of some use to people that don't drink Bud or Guinness a la Tesco offer.
Can confirm these were seen in Sutton and Finglas stores so I presume most stores will have them.

too true, it's not like having bottles in the fridge, once it is opened it'll be gone in no time...

Got the Grolsch last week for 15.99. Can't seem to be able to use it properly though. Doesn't help that the instructions are in Dutch! Beer doesn't flow properly for me. It either gushes out and you end up with a 6" head or it dribbles out. I must be doing something wrong

wba88

Superquinn Ballinteer;
lunchtime: got a heino coz grolsch was sold out lots of heino and Warsteiner left

heggie

This gizmo could solve all your problems.;)

I'll go mental if I don't get my hands on a few heino kegs. Might pop up to Ballinteer tonight. Loads of all 3 brands in Sutton yesterday.

Stock even lower cause I went shopping.:D
Bloke in the store said the kegs are brilliant once you keep them in the fridge for the recommended time.

Out of interest has anyone seen these(pref Heineken) kegs for sale anywhere else?

mwrf

impossible to get a nice glass of beer from a keg of heineken here, it just spits out foam.



still drinking it though

keep it cold, trust me!...

also, advantage of heineken over warsteiner is, taht it will keep longer, other than the tap you dont pierce the heineken, with warsteiner you have to push in a plastic 'cork' which exposes the beer to the air, making it undrinkable a day later

regretting not getting more heineken rather than grolsch, the grolsh kegs are the same as the warsteiner

Tipsy Mac

Anyone tasted the Heineken yet, how does it compare to pints from the pub or cans?

Sounds great. Unfortunately €120 to keep a €9.99 keg cold is a bit of a false economy! :eek:

i just bought some last night before they closed and they had a good amount of them left. but that could greatly change today and tomorrow given the weekend it is

hey ...a heads up here.. if you are advising of a bargain it helps to give the cubic cap.

eg 250ml 330 ml 500 ml... not trying to be smart but size matters:D

The tax man

Still loads of all 3 brands in Knocklyon as of 5pm today.

Superquinn Knocklyon only had Grolsch left, but there were loads of them left when I was there (around an hour ago).

A cold keg seems to be the secret alright. heggie was spot on. I had mine in the fridge since last night. Just tried a sample glass just now,spat out foam at first but then came a nice flow of beer. The difference(in taste) between the Heineken we get here and the stuff in the keg. Nice strong taste from the keg.
Only 9.5 litres go to.:D

Yeah, I've got a few of these over the years and learned the hard way. You have to put them in the fridge for at least 24 hours before hand. The first pint will always be foam, but the rest are worth waiting for.

I have two fridges, with two kegs in each since Thursday.
