Don't drink muck like Heineken, Carlsberg, Bud, Coors or the likes.

Be great if anyone comes across any deals for Pale Ales could they throw them up here. For anyone who hasn't tried just to name just two, 12 acres or yellowbelly you are missing out on a quality drink

Better off heading over to the Food & drink forum, there's a craft beer thread and a Good Drink bargain alerts which would suit you better. That said, you won't get much in the way of deals on craft beer outside of the the 4 for €10/12 offerings. Most people are buying online now as well from craft central and the likes but deals are rare.

The Crafty Brewing Co (Rye River Brewing, makers of McGargles) beers in Lidl are all pretty good and under €2 (usual price, not an offer)
They have a box of Belgian ales as an offer at the moment.

Probably too late now for their Crafty Brewing Christmas special offer boxes though, it was 12 500mL bottles for €19.99 including a cognac barrel aged stout, came out last Saturday but would have gone fast

Aldi do O'Sheas (Carlow Brewing Co, the makers of O'Haras) and Brown Bear but imho the latter range is not great at all.

The 25 percent off will still be allowable under new legislations? Even with mup it's above the threshold for this deal.

It's covered under banning of rewards \ loyalty \ multi buy not the base MUP threshold which doesn't have a date yet. Basically you aren't allowed any benefit on alcohol from other purchases and vice versa, is my understanding.

Okay thanks. Maybe they'll just knock 25 percent off across the board non multi buy!

Aldi have brought out their annual craft beer box "the 12 bears of xmas", didnt see a price. Prefer this one as I think ya get a few brown ales in the lidl box which I'm not partial too

Tanqueray No 10 Gin (70 cl) is down to 30 in Supervalu again

The Lidl one is decent value at €15.

There’s a limited edition stout in it as well.

Might have to pick up a box.

There is a BA thread for it... needs alexa or google assistant and you request a sample.

I tried every day from thursday-monday in my local and was told it sold out when it arrived on Sunday afternoon, was in an hour before they arrived which was real disappointing

Hi folks

Looking for a nice whiskey nothing to expensive its not a gift just something to have In the house over the Christmas.

Would Jameson stil be first choice? Anyone try other jamson flavours that they would recommend?
Open to other options aswell .


Thanks in advance

Tesco have a litre of Powers for 25 euro. You wont do better than that for the price. Alternatively Powers 3 swallows for 30euro, Jameson Black Barrel for 25 or Jameson Crested for 25 is a good buy too.

stimpson

I’d go for the Crested if you’re not into spending lots, but the 3 Swallows is a step above for a fiver. Pure Pot still for €30 is a bargain.

The Jameson Caskmates Stout edition is nice and anyone I've seen try it is impressed.
