I've been keeping myself sane with tesco's 4 for €10 but I can't drink another Sierra Nevada Tropical or 8 Degree Full Irish. I love strong beers, 6% plus ideally, and my favourite type of beers would be Belgian ales, German Weissbier or a (D)IPA. Any Irish sites/breweries to get a good deal from?

Hopefully I got in before the Fastway truck came to Dead Centre; because Fastway don't deliver on Saturdays here normally. DPD do if anyone can remember who uses DPD?

I got some of the New Belgian - Voodoo Ranger range which I've never had before, and some To Øl beers as well. Great delivery speed too. I will try the Mescan lads next week their beers look great. Interested to see what West of Ireland Tripels and Lambiks taste like!

I have a couple of breweries I've come to really like and have on a regular basis, so would like to have their glasses for their beers. I've checked some of their web stores and they, for the most part, do not sell their glasses. Would it be a little too cheeky for me to reach out to them to ask for one, whilst offering to pay for them?

If not they're available online. https://www.thecounterdeli.com/shop-gifts/kinnegar-beer-gift-box Surprised Black's don't have their glasses on their website but they'd be worth dropping an email to. Never seen an OBrother or Whiplash glass out in the wild. I'd imagine that breweries may not be rushing to refresh stocks of glassware at the minute with pubs closed as well.
