Used to work for a well known offy chain. As far as i remember Rolling rock was taking of the market in ireland. I used to drink it, lovely beer. I don't know how anyone could drink hollandia/amsterdam though tbf

Bavaria is a well made lager - not bad at all for the price.

Warsteiner is €1 a bottle most places, and sometimes cheaper by the box, and staropramen when it is out for €1 a bottle which is rarer now. Pravsky is alright- think it is made by staropramen too. Bottles of heineken can be got for €1 or less a lot of the time too now.

There are a few amsterdam ones, amsterdam mariner is the "premium" one, and is only 4.2% and the same price as the green can which is 5% and is a worse taste.

Many drinkers didn't even notice the snakes reduced it.
