Roughly where do you live? They do say on their website that some DPD depots are having issues and can't guarantee a delivery date for those. They've always been next day for me.

I'm in Southwest Dublin. I've put in another order today, fingers crossed it arrives before the weekend

Just order the Birthday Case from Treaty City...

Watermelon Wheat Beer
IPA
Milk Stout
Pale Ale

3 bottles of each for €45 delivered

Still not fully stocked so i will need to wait until next week to get my Red Ale

So my beers arrived Wednesday...

So far
Watermelon Wheat Beer is lovely, would love if they added it to their core range

Milk Stout is very pleasant, not very strong, smooth and perfect at room temperature

Pale Ale...not to my taste, it reminds of those super hoppy ales(think it has too much cascade hop) I think it's grand if you want just 1 beer but I couldn't be able to have 2 in a row

IPA...super fruity and super hoppy it's nice...

Delighted with my order...well worth the money

I wonder can you collect from the brewery?

I have been told that you can buy direct and collect from Galway Hooker brewery, exact cash only.

25 euro for 12 x 500ml.

It's 38 online, incl delivery.

UPS seem to be doing really bad recently. I would have anticipated better from such a big brand. I had two non-beer orders from the same retailer due at the same time. One made it, one was lost in transit. I've spent the last week trying to chase it with UPS and trying to get reimbursement from them for a lost package. And the retailer is not responsive.

Same in my situation, UPS at fault and Whiplash dealt with it quickly and professionally

Whiplash order arrived looking bedraggled. One can burst and leaked over the two slabs. First damage at all and it came from the "professional' UPS!

I had an issue with UPS delivering my Whiplash order. I emailed the guys in the brewery and their response was nothing short of exceptional. I won't go in to details, but suffice to say they take customer care very seriously and they're now my regular payday treat to myself. Helps that their brew is lovely

For clarification, problem was entirely with UPS

FYI for anyone around Sligo - Walker 1781 are doing growler’s of Kinnegar, White Hag and Lough Gill..

Was Kildare's "turn" in my unwritten rota but they only have the lager in stock on their site currently; so Larkins and Kinnegar via Beercloud it is

Local shop must be wondering why their sales of GBB/O'Haras/McGargles/Rascals are way down :pac:

Doesn't seem to be an option, it appears to be delivery only.

Think I had a mixed case before in about 4 days but that was when things were mental at the start of the lockdown.

Are those tiddies on the stout bottle? Hopefully they’ll release another few over the next while, I’d like to taste the New England.

My brother knows the owner, so got him to text him to see if I could get my order asap...cheeky as fcuk I know

There was 20 in stock when I ordered earlier...Have you ordered from them before? How long does it normally take?

Ordered TRIPA pack, a stein and face mask from The White Hag late on Wednesday evening and arrived before midday today.

Good stuff from them!

Tried about 10 minutes ago myself and they’re all gone.

Shannon River is one of the nicest IPAs going. Never tried the "Embrace", was that a one-off to coincide with Limericks rebranding?

Yeah it was some toffee something pale ale.

Rascals in inchicore do mini kegs along with tins if anyone is looking for something along those lines.

I don’t think they deliver the kegs though.

Can I just say how much I love Craft Central?

Ordered Wednesday night, thinking I'd left it too late for the bank holiday weekend, but lo and behold, it arrived this morning. Nice mix of Kinnegar, 8 degrees and Galway Bay Brewery to keep me going in these trying times.

I also suggest ordering in quantities of 24 so as not to waste packaging :pac:
