    And a quick google tells me Barry & Fitzwilliam also sell ginger beer

    I had a Crabbies and a Ginger Joe the other day. Ginger Joe is far nicer.

    I had a Ginger Joe last night (€2 in Dunnes;330ml) and I thought it was ridiculously bland. There was a good hit of ginger at the back of my mouth at first but after that it just pretty tasteless. I'd nearly describe it as a ginger alco-pop.

    The Williams Brothers one is the best I've tasted.

    Crabbies and Hollows are probably my favourites, though I admit they really are more like alcopops, not a hint of beer flavour.
    Franks (made my Kopparberg) was much more of a ginger flavoured beer, and a bit similar to Marks and Spencers ginger beer.
    Also tried Grandma's Weapon Grade which was good, but really different. tasted really floral and barely gingery at all.

    Want to try Ginger Joe's now.

    Wierd, just in the process of brewing my first batch today.

    Got about 11 litres of it. Does that count as wholesale?

    I think I need a bigger fermenter.

    Hi, I am wondering where I could get the Hollows alcoholic ginger beer (4% avb)? I live in Galway, are any of the supermarkets or nation wide off-licenses stocking this?

    Thanks
