If you buy Kilkenny in Germany, it's actually rebranded Smithwicks, because in German "wicks" (wichs) means "Wank", so Smithwicks effectively means "Wanker Smith"...

Alas we don't get free beer. Diageo employees have a monthly free beer allowance though.

Which is exactly what I think of Kilkenny:D, obviously as a Smithwicks drinker I was in a bit of bind when I was in Germany...

ladyswell all the way my friends

i love cork, just started back at college today and we were doing thermodynamics and the lecturer used the example of a pint of MURPHYS being left on a bar going warm to show an example of conduction and convection.

all though i do wonder as to why the pint of murphys was left on the bar and not drank? were there pints of guinness there aswell? were they drank?

thats for the philosphy class. is the glass half full or half empty

Half full in case of Guinness.

Half S**te in case of Murphys.:D

Has nobody been to the Porter House near Temple Bar in Dublin??

Get urself an oul pint o 'Plain'(similar to Guinness), they also have another one(can't remember name), stout but about 5% alc.

They have their own brewery and a massive selection of beers!!

Mess rs Maguires also do their own stout. Its ok.

For some reason I've been choosing Guinness myself lately. And normally I'm a lager swiller. I'll probably stay on it for the winter; can't stand it in the summer. I'm a non-fairweather drinker

joseph: Oyster Stout, I think. And it's lovely.

Most British pubs will have a few local varieties of cider on tap - generally on one of the big manual pumps. It's worth trying your way through those I'd imagine, although I haven't touched cider since I was about 17 so I can't really say whether they're any good. They're certainly generally STRONG...
