Wow. Anyone know if this is in any Tesco's around Limerick....?

If so, I'll be going home with a boot full of Beamish this evening....

Good stuff, I have never once seen it on offer before, always think it strange that there are so many €1 cans about and it is usually close to €2 yet is normally the cheapest pint by far in a pub.

this offer was on about 6 months ago too, I picked up 8 cans-big mistake.

I'm a big stout drinker, love Guinness and in the last couple of years have been drinking a fair bit of Beamish in the pubs-lovely stuff too.

Their cans are a different story, maybe I got a bad batch, or else their canned stuff is just piss ..but every one of those 8 cans I picked up on offer were absolutely terrible, nothing close to a Beamish in the pub...

I'm not so sure about your palate mate, I believe Beamish is made from the same roast that Guinness is made from. As a matter of fact they purchased the roast from Guinness themselves.
However I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that perhaps things have changed now that Heineken have purchased Beamish.

I couldn't disagree more

Guinness in the can is so weak to drink. Beamish in the can(when cold of course) is delicious. You must of got a bad batch assuming you correctly poured the whole thing into the glass in one go unlike some who do a part pour with stout cans(wtf!)!
The usual 4 cans for five something is surpassed by this offer, will be keeping an eye out, thanks OP
