Best price for slab of Heini?

Anyone know if a slab of hop house is a thing?

I’ll be at dunnes later so will update if I see anything.

Never seen a slab of Hophouse and lord knows I’ve looked. Just delighted it’s finally in cans so I can bring some to EP.

You’ll be twisted around a tree after a few of those.

I can't imagine it's great with that percentage and for that price. I think Aldi do some knock off Carlsberg thing for less than a Euro a can. Never tasted it so not sure how poisonous it is.

Time to start stocking up on cans! Anyone seen some good deals, beer or cider?

Not sure if you can get your hands on a Musgraves card, but they are doing Heineken and Carlsberg - 24 cans for 25euro. That is where I will be heading this week.

Looking for a few cans of cheap cider too....is the aldi/lidl stuff muck or not?

It’s actually a pretty deacent craft cider, medium dry, only a 330ml can but for 99c can’t complain.
They also do a hopped cider but it’s a lower ABV, nice though.

Does Eco allow you in before Friday?

Yeah, it was a bit chaotic when we got there on the Thursday last year but they let us in no sweat.

Tea-a-Maria · 18-08-2018 03:44PM

Has anything been announced for Thursday evening yet? I know there was comedy last year but haven't heard if that's happening again.

tonto123 · 18-08-2018 03:53PM

There's female comedians on the Thursday evening I believe

Tesco are doin 24 Heineken for €30

Ah sure you could get 40 Galahad for that

MadYaker · 18-08-2018 05:26PM

The craft beers have ruined me in the last few years. I used to have no problem drinking galahad and tesco lager and dutch gold but I just can't do it any more. Cheap cider is still fine though. I'm bringing a few 4 packs of druids some craft ales in cans and some vodka.

You could, and you won’t be worrying about clashes when you’re in a portaloo for the weekend.

I’d love to bring some sours for the breakfast, but I’d get an awful time if I did.

Dunnes are doing a Carlsberg slab for 28.

Few flasks of nice whiskey, my slab and some wanker craft beer will set me up for the weekend!

Poorside · 18-08-2018 06:37PM

I’m thinking we organise a meet up and find each other by looking for cans of wanker craft beer.

I wouldn't.. it might crack the can when it expands.

But it might not, stick one in a plastic bag and pop in the freezer to test.

fourmations · 18-08-2018 07:02PM

well.... i have left them in the freezer a bit too long when aggressively cooling warm cans and they've turned to slush and recovered, no sure if they'd go solid or go horrible if i left them overnight say
ill try a few and report back

Anywhere doing deals on cans of Kopparberg? Everywhere around just seems to be doing bottles.
