    SuperValu has it. Not great imho, as it's on the watery side.

    Caledonian is owned by Heineken, but the beer is brewed by Caledonian in Edinburgh.

    I've seen bottles of it in Bradley's in Cork, and I think Rising Sons here has it on tap. That could be a different 80 Shilling though, I believe there are a few...

    I like their beers. Used to buy them in Odd Bins. Saw them recently in Tesco Merrion Centre D4. Never seem to be in reliable stock anywhere. Some Centra that do a craft beer range have had them recently too - not cheap though.

    I've only ever had it on cask in Scotland. Visiting the brewery in Edinburgh is a great experience by the way. Lovely brewery, beautiful old copper kettles still in use. Oh, the open bar certainly helped matters :D

    It's not open to the public though.

    Oh really? That's a shame. It was a good tour.
