Regular price of €24.95 in O'Briens- and at €19.95 online (from 8wines- similar prices from VinduFr and a few other sites).

You can pay 30-35 if you want- you don't need to).

Are there different versions of the Rheinbacher like there is Perlenbacher?

If it blew the Germany brewed Perlenbacher out of the water, I ight just give it a try!

Spend 50 euro in Dunnes on groceries. Get your 10 euro off voucher. Pick up a bottle of Redbreast and get 10 euro off - Happy days.

It's a great system all right.:)

Just one thing to note you can't use a voucher on the day it is issued. You have to go back the next day.

The trick if you're not a regular shopper in Dunnes is to hunt down a relative or friend who is, 'borrow' their voucher to make your purchase on a day they don't intend to shop in Dunnes, and then give them back the voucher attached to your receipt.

The checkout and service counter staff used to keep unused vouchers that customers didn't use but I think since Covid-19 they don't take them anymore.

to be honest, I don't notice any real difference between the can and the bottle.

v good value beer.

the patronus weissbier in lidl for 1.49 a bottle is another v good one from the German discount chains imo.

O'Briens only starting getting regular stock in recent weeks, it was 30-35 euro pre and for most of lockdown because only select suppliers were importing it until quite recently. It was near impossible to get hold of for less than 30 after Christmas.

Reason I pointed it out is Supervalu money off vouchers are back so people can get a better bargain if they chuck it into a weekly shop.

They always have a way around that. What some of them do now is keep the voucher you would receive with a purchase and use another one for your purchase, that way, you never even get to handle a voucher and the cycle continues for next customer

Cans usually get a bad rep, as people are drinking directly from them. Nowadays many small breweries are changing to cans as they feel it is superior to bottles, as it does not let light in.

Any time I have seen blind tastings done people did not find much of a difference, this was pouring the beer into glasses and then tasting.

Cans are usually plastic lined inside, but where you crack it open exposes bar metal, and I reckon this might have the "tin/aluminium foil on the teeth" effect

It is nice, but I wouldn't say its life changing either unless you're more of a white/rose drinker (I'm a red person except in hot weather). I much prefer it to the new Sarah Jessica Parker Invivo Rose.

I just get a hankering for rose every so often and have been disappointed by other bottles so prefer to get something I know I'll drink rather than risk it, unless I trust the recommendation.

It might be an outrageous price for vinegar but for a quality wine it is actual quite cheap.

Disclaimer, I’ve never drunk it And am far from an expert so I have no idea How it ranks, although I did buy 2 bottles today for the missus

Peroni offer is still on. Hard to find though, I was in Greystones today and they had none. On way home I popped into Liffey valley and got their last box

Sarah Jessica Parker endorsed wine ffs - does it leave a cranky annoying after-taste like she does?

Rose is a wine type more often associated with hen parties and being gulped rather than savoured tbh

Jeremy Clarkson likes to swig 2 bottles of Leoube over lunch.
