    Heading down for Spraoi again this year, really looking forward to it. Myself & my OH are not big drinkers and would like to have the car with us while we're out and about at night.

    Can you recommend any venues that specifically carry a range of non-alcoholic beers/wines? (non-alcoholic Erdinger, etc).

    Bars that have the best selection of beers also have the best (albeit limited) selection of non-alcoholic beers too. Places which I'm nearly 100% have non-alcoholic Erdinger & Becks etc... are Geoffs, The Front Lounge and Revolutions, possibly Downes and The Forum too but I'm not positive on that.

    I am on the non alcoholic route the last three months and I drink the non alcoholic Erdinger in the Tap Room on Ballybricken. They only get in a few but there will always be at least half a dozen in stock in there of this.

    Geoff's I taught would have this but went in one Saturday night and they only had the non alcoholic Paulaner which is dirt. I was abit surprised they didn't stock the Erdinger non alcoholic.

    Woodman,Revolutions,Kazbar stock it. I am not sure on the Front Lounge. I'd say don't worry about it as most of the busy places stock it.

    I would assume every half-decent pub in the city centre would have non-alco beers in stock

    You'd be surprised.
    With all the non alcoholic beers out there at the mo: Beck, Erdinger, Bavaria, Paulaner (and the rest), Pubs only seem to stock Bec' and maybe Erdinger. Think there's an up'n coming market got non alcoholic beers these days.

    Of course it wouldn't - pubs would make nothing from it?

    Restaurants make money on corkage and the food, hence why Bring Your Own Wine nights work for them. :)
