    Tried Brewdog Dead Pony Club recently. Only 3.8% and quite nice. Just keen to find some decent low ABV beers for less of a hangover

    Trouble's Graffiti is superb when fresh, and only 3.6% ABV.

    I love Whiplash Rollover. At 3.8% it is really refreshing

    Little Fawn from White Hag is very nice but it's 4.2% instead of under 4%

    I had a pint of White Gypsy's session ale, on tap in the Bierhaus in Galway last weekend, and was hugely impressed. One of the best session beers I've come across. I can't remember the exact ABV, but it was three-point-something.

    Founders all day ipa is lovely.

    Founders all day ipa is lovely.

    yeah I like it. 4.7% isn't very high and I'll still drink it , but just looking to sample a few very low % ones to see if there's any I'd like.

    Cheers for all the suggestions from everyone so far. Will defo try some soon

    I must be thinking of another beer. I thought it was under 4%

    The benefits of a flat american alcohol duty system. They can brew beer of any strength and pay the same duty. So you can see how 4.7% can be considered "low gravity" :)

    +1 on Graffiti.

    It's fresh in O'Brien's at moment. 4 500ml bottles for €10

    Another +1 for Trouble Graffiti. Via Maris from Galway Bay is quite nice too.

    Having a pint of water on the go whilst you're supping pints is a great way of fending off the hangover too.

    What percentage is the All Night Long that Rascals(?) did for Molloys? Liked that.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 11,975 Mod ✭✭✭✭BeerNut


    4.2%. I'd say it was a one-off though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,675 ✭✭✭ronnie3585


    I really like Yellowbelly's Fierce Mild. GBB's Maris is good too.

    The selection changes a lot but To Ol should have a gose or a berliner weisse that fits the bill, and most of them are great!

    Aldi's session pale ale is nice and only €1.89 per 500ml. It's 4.1%


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,683 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    I second graffiti, it can be in Lidl for 1.99 at times. Aldi session ale is really nice but it seems to be getting low in stock


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 507 ✭✭✭Tedious Bore


    Thanks for all those suggestions so far. The Little Fawn White Hag one was nice and thought Grafitti was decent too but slight bit fruity for my liking. Will try some others soon. Cheers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 507 ✭✭✭Tedious Bore


    +1 for Via Maris
    only 3.5%


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,820 ✭✭✭donaghs


    O'Hara's Session IPA is lovely, only 4%, but still tastes (to me anyway) like a decent IPA.
    Brakespear Bitter is a nice English Ale that's amazingly only 3.4%.

    But if craft beer and obscure English ales arehard to find, your could just settle for Smithwicks which is everywhere, and only 3.8%


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 93 ✭✭crazyhorse


    Another +1 for White Hag's Little Fawn. Great beer.
