Nope but do me a favour and ask them for Aspall Cider. They won't have it but tell them they should get it in.

Sick to my back teeth of trying to get a "hearing" with the owner.

Mc Love · 27-07-2011 7:11pm

Also ask if they would consider getting Old Speckled Hen on draught?

Oooooh I love Aspall Cider! Mmmmm.

Can I get it in an offie BeerBaron?

Mission accomplished. he said he'd get anything we wanted if we drank enough of the stuff. and said Blue moon is moving...

Insect Overlord · 28-07-2011 12:48am

That Blue Moon stuff is quality. And that's coming from a lad who doesn't usually drink beer!

Speaking of "mission accomplished". My next mission is to get a few of my friends to try out a few decent beers instead of cheap naggins and crap pints.

The saddest part is that the same guys used to love going to places like the Locke. Not so these days!

Drinking just to get drunk enough for the club seems like such a waste of time.

Mc Love · 28-07-2011 1:09am

Thats an awful state of affairs, I dont really think people like that are mature. I mean if you cant just enjoy a nice pint/glass/bottle or two of beer without getting wasted is just stupid and a waste of money

Irish Craft beers boards meet-up ftw! Though I do like a good German beer also

zuroph · 28-07-2011 2:22pm

IO, it was the Funk Junkies the band you were asking about.

Thanks a lot for that! They were fantastic last week, warming up the crowd for the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble.

Was gonna suggest the same!

Craft beer pub crawl?

Fairly difficult. Not too many craft beers about in this city.

You wouldn't get too far. Fair enough Galway Hooker is in O'Connells and maybe O'Haras but unless you can get a good Metalman or Dungarvan or Porterhouse then you're not doing very well.

Head into Micky Martins soon as they have a Porterhouse Down N Outz which was commissioned by Joe Elliot of Def Leppard. 330ml bottles and very rare to find in this country. Very Very Malty.

Yeah I saw the sign outside the other day - potential!

Also the White House does Paulaner on draught.

zuroph · 28-07-2011 8:20pm

sounds like plenty of spots for a crawl so! I'd be glad if we could get a decent group into one pub, let alone 5 but would be a laugh!

Curraghower does aswell,although I've gone off the stuff after a very messy night a few months ago.Enjoying a few Erdinger now though

Walking home from work today and passing Centra near South court hotel, Saw what looked like an Unmarked Garda Car
fly up the street with blue flashing lights coming out of the grills under the bonnet tearing up the road, enter the wrong way against the traffic through a one way traffic system (they entered through an exit) and seen what looked like a Garda jump out of the car.....thought for a minute there was some emergency..........where did he go....into the feckin chipper!!!! :eek::rolleyes:

If you guys really want to go drinking try Dublins Oktoberfest on the Docklands.

On the subject of Gardaí, I saw my first black Guard yesterday! It was kinda awesome.

Paulaner had it but it's been Erdinger last year and this year. Apparently Paulaner(AKA Heineken Ireland) made a bags of it.
