    That's the pub convicted of selling the counterfeit vodka is it not...
    The pub company of former Tipperary hurling star Lar Corbett has been fined €1,500 and ordered to close for two days after being convicted of a breach of Revenue legislation. The conviction was imposed at Thurles District Court yesterday in relation to 23 bottles of counterfeit vodka seized at Corbett’s bar, Coppinger’s, in Thurles.

    Judge Elizabeth McGrath said Lar Corbett, who has two All-Ireland medals, was an “honest and fair witness” but said there was a “lack of a proper stocktaking process” at the pub.

    Mr Corbett, the nominee of his company Marlstone Investments, denied breaching Revenue legislation by having 16.1 litres of spirits for sale at his pub in Thurles, Co Tipperary, without having paid the appropriate rate of tax.

    The offence was detected by Revenue officials after a visit to his Coppinger’s Bar on Parnell St, Thurles, on January 29, 2015. The court heard in September a sample from one of 23 bottles taken from Coppinger’s Bar was found by the state laboratories to be “neither pure vodka nor… Smirnoff vodka”. which it purported to be. An expert from Diageo said the closure on a bottle given to him for testing was “fake” and the Smirnoff labelling was “fake”.

    Disgraceful! I'm outraged!
    ...
    That this is not on at a venue I'll be able to get to...
