    there's a 500ml bottled pilsner 5% on sale in Tesco for 1.50 or so - it's brewed in Ireland in Dundalk by Pearse Lyons Brewery with a fake Czech name - Manislav - not bad though - nice and clean with that Czech taste. Ideal Summer beer.

    only had a couple once - tasted fine and it was well-chilled. will try it a second time over the next while!

    compared well to it's competitors in the same type and price-range I thought.

    Current favorite is Splash by Vandestreek Brewing, it’s a session IPA but feels much stronger than its 4.5%, nice citrus bite to it.

    Drank a few pints of Running On by Dot Brew the other day. Lovely stuff.

    Just need to find places other than Underdog that serve it.

    Larkin's Live Till You Die.

    I took the plunge on forking out the € 3 being demanded by Marks N Spencer for the 500ml bottle of Aspall Cider 6.8%.

    Vewy tasty. I like my ciders dry and crisp. This bitch evaporates off your tongue and sthings its' way nicely down your throat. mmmmmm tres refreshing.

    I can't emphasis enough the pleasure in tasting a proper dry cider. The English are good for something you know. I felt like I was in deepest Somerset devouring 3 bottles of these babies. The 6.8% gives a nice cuddly kick also.

    At 1.5 litres for € 9, you will find cheaper ciders. But for me I am sick to death of drinking the plethora of schweet pish that literally swamps the Irish cider market. Please , please , please make more dry ciders, the sweet stuff is for kids.

    Thoroughly enjoyed a can of Stiegl Grapefruit Radler yesterday, like a beery Lilt, great thirst quencher.

    Too much alcohol burn for me unfortunately, still pretty good.

    Had to check my notes for my favourite, it's Do You Wanna Touch Me by Whiplash, or Shades of Marble by the same. Both on the same level as the best of the best international of the style I've had.
