    Had this a while back in Liverpool. Magnificent beer, I might add. But the only problem is I can't seem to get it over here. Does anyone know where it is sold in the Northside of Dublin?

    I've bought it in more than a few molloys before. they always seem to have it.
    a good beer, but very fruity.

    It's nice but I wouldn't drink more than one of them... a little too... sweet for my liking

    O Brien's in Ranelagh have it.
    I agree, it is a delicious beer. Drink it lots in England.

    i've only ever seen it up north in sainsburys

    Nice enough wheat beer, a bit like hoegaarden, if a tad sweeter

    It seems to have disappeared when Beamish closed. They were both owned by Scottish & Newcastle so I'd guess Beamish was the distributor. In the carve up, Beamish went to Heineken while Carlsberg got Kronenbourg.

    Sorry to drag up an old post but I cannot find this beer anywhere in Ireland and wondered if anyone else had a break through?

    Diageo are distributing it so some pubs should have it on tap. Should be in offies and supermarkets soon.

    Oh that sounds brilliant, thanks! It would be great if it was rolled out in time for Summer!

    Ok, I'm doing it again. I'm seeing everywhere that it's been launched in Ireland. Apparently back in August. I cannot see it for sale online or in any off licences yet though! Tell me someone has seen it!

    Had it in the Clayton in Galway during the week - maybe other Dalata hotels are also carrying it?

    Lovely beer - if I'd not been working I'd have had more than the couple I enjoyed!
