Few years ago on Holidays I experienced some local beer called "Krystal" - 19c a bottle. Beat that. Wouldn't have taken much to beat the taste though.

steveland? · 10-09-2005 12:42am

I second Rolling Rock... lovely beer for the price...

Karl Hungus · 10-09-2005 8:06am

I once got bottles of Stella for a euro each. Definetly where my vote is going.

dimerocks · 10-09-2005 8:11am

rollling rock would be grand if it didnt give the worst hangovers ever so i dont give that my vote.where do you get warsteiner for that cheap.its not quite a euro but i give my vote to Tuborg.

BigCon · 10-09-2005 8:14am

How come no one has mentioned Miller?
It's only €1.12 a bottle in Dunnes (if you buy a slab) and is one of tyhe nicest tasting beers around

Cake Fiend · 10-09-2005 2:32pm

Where are people getting Warsteiner for €1?? :eek:

ye its 10 bottles for 11 euro in my local off licence, it pretty good!

ApeXaviour · 10-09-2005 2:47pm

Becks is ok for €1 a bottle. Of all those dead cheap french mini-beer bottle crates, Bier d'Or wins for flavour. Tuborg is great in that it tastes lovely and doesnt give a hangover, it falls on value however as you have to drink so many of them to get drunk.

However St Bernard lager wins. 89c a can and has a mild flavour such that it's like a light beer. Not so much gut and you can down em like water but man they get you locked.

fish fingers · 10-09-2005 5:40pm

Blisterman · 10-09-2005 6:24pm

O'Briens Off license in Sandymount has it, I've seen it in a few places though, off-license in fairview across from the park is another. Tesco had it at one point, they may have it in some of the larger ones.

rubadub · 13-09-2005 10:08am

Tuborg is 19.99 for 24 330ml longnecks in tescos

ct5amr2ig1nfhp · 13-09-2005 10:28am

Its gotta be rolling rock. Mmmmm!

ambrose :cool:

In Limerick, Tesco, Dunnes and Lidl we're all selling Stellafor less than €1 bottle or 330ml can. No wonder my former home has problems!!! It would be quiet funny(in a sick/sad sort of way) to see all the alco's knocking back the Stella!!!

decbuck · 13-09-2005 10:41am

rolling rock definitely

matrim · 13-09-2005 10:46am

1. Warsteiner
2. Stella
3. Grolsch

pickarooney · 13-09-2005 11:02am

€1, that's very much at the upper end of the scale. I'd be hard-pushed to find a can at over 80c... Going to Ireland this week and am not looking forward to the total ruination inevitable with the combination of Dutch salaries and Irish prices

loyatemu · 14-09-2005 10:39am

1664 or San Miguel

drinking Tesco Premium French at the moment (well not right now) - pretty nice at €16 for 20 longnecks.

ferdi · 14-09-2005 10:42am

tuborg.

rolling rock is the worst american piss-water beer i've ever had. worse than bud.

good, I want to try that next

1664 was going for €1 a year or so ago, the proper stuff too, very smooth with little hops, very nice.

worse than bud.

I thought the mods had banned the use of the word b*d, why do other swear words get blocked out but not it, its the most offensive stuff I have ever come across. Go wash your mouth out with tesco value gin

Blisterman · 14-09-2005 3:39pm

Bavaria is quite nice too, if theres nothing else cheap enough.

gizmo · 14-09-2005 3:46pm

San Miguel is lovely indeed although you have to be careful where you buy it as the price can vary alot in places...

ya San miguel rules...just that compared to spain...it tastes awful here amd is much more expensive

Kingp35 · 15-09-2005 2:43pm

If we are talking about quality and taste it has to be Warsteiner. Rolling Rock is a nice enough beer but it gives you an almighty hangover!!

In second place would have to be Grolsch and then Stella.

Stay the hell away from Hollandia. P*ss in a can

whiskeyman · 15-09-2005 2:50pm

Stella, Grolsh or Rolling Rock.
Happy days really...

delboy159 · 16-09-2005 10:58am

How about the Bergadler Pils in Lidl? It's 6 bottles for €7, but they are 500ml bottles which puts them at 77c for 330ml... The hangover can be fairly light too. You don't have to go looking for a deal on it either - thats its normal fixed price

I'm a big fan of Warsteiner also.

Anyone else have an opinion on the Lidl stuff?

My top 3 are:

1. Pils in Lidl
2. Warsteiner
3. Miller

Royale with Cheese · 18-09-2005 11:39pm

I usually go for rolling rock, but if a few of us are buying together a crate of 20 millers for €20 is always the best option. Tuborg ain't bad either, I'll be living in Cologne this year where Tuborg is 50c for a 500ml bottle. Nice.

i find that statement the opposite for me, rolling rock has no hangover effects for me. its stella that gives brutal hangovers even just a couple of cans of stella gives me hangover.

BogOak · 20-09-2005 12:33pm

someone said beck's. beck's for a euro, i doubt it. i'd add krombacher to the list. i got it for a euro somewhere, navan road i think. warsteiners a good one an all.

I'd go as far as to say, stay away from cans they are all ****e.

Peteee · 20-09-2005 12:49pm

Fink Brau from lidl.

24 250ml bottles for 22 euro, I think

All I can say to that is "Yuck"! I've been know to drink some pi$$ in my time but that Stink Brau is the vilest stuff I've ever had the misfortune to drink. I guess what I'm trying to say is I hate that stuff.

Warsteiner not bad though.

Cant argue with cheapness! Must check out this Warsteiner

cuaifeadh · 21-09-2005 12:44am

Although I'd have to say Tuborg for old time's sake, I'd say that there is nothing more satisfying(no matter how unbelieveably **** it tastes) and cheap than your own home brew!! *rubs tummy* Not sure if it qualifies although seeing as you can't buy it in shops :C

BraveDonut · 21-09-2005 2:12pm

Used to drink Warsteiner all the time - O' Briens were doing cases of it. But stopped when a mate pointed out how much it makes you fart. I thought it was just me, but checked with other mates and we all agree - very, very breezy

Dimitri · 23-09-2005 6:34pm

Sadly i grew up knacker drinker so my palate has adjusted to the taste of dutch gold. Tuborg is good too but i tend towards miller when i have the cash and am drinking from a can.

Now that's just plain silly.

Winter Slide · 24-09-2005 11:58am

can't say Warsteiner has ever had that effect on me. I think its a great drop. Rolling Rock however drinkable it may be gives me the ****s! Lovely

O'Briens have Stella, Warsteiner, Grolsch and Rolling Rock for a euro a bottle

Best €1 beer
