Quite a few southern reg cars in Sainsbury's in Newry today no big shock
I did, last time around for the election I mentioned it to every canvasser calling to the house. Was pretty much met with "yes ok we will take note of that" as per most topics. My post was solely a response to the Twitter post of the Temple Bar pricing, nothing else.
I am stocked up now with enough alcohol for a 'considerable' amount of time.
What changes are you on about regarding the sales of alcohol over the past couple of years? Only change I saw was vouchers no longer allowed for alcohol sales and some arsehole decoding saloon doors on the alcohol section was fashionable.
Kitchen isn't ambient though. Hottest room of the house.
Why didn't you speak up years ago about it? MUP was on the cards for years. If you hadn't noticed the changes regarding the sales of alcohol over the past couple of years. Also all political parties bar the socialists were for the minimum pricing.
Regardless of the prices in the Dail bar, MUP only effects alcohol in off sales and supermarkets!
Yes Sainsbury's have 15 cans for £14. It's the 5% stuff too.

Fwiw that offo in Jonesbrough isnt overly cheap.
24 x 440ml cans of heineken 32 euro.
In tesco its about 30 cans for the same price give or take. Would be worth going the extra few kms.
Might order in a slab of krombacher to test the waters. Ive emailed them to see if they do requests.
November 2022. I'll go through some more later later anyway and see if it was just a bit of bad luck.
No way storing slabs in ambient will spoil them in a couple of weeks. Check the date on the base ?
And in the Dail bar prices are a lot less for our hard working TD's who brought in minumum pricing...
Guinness €4.80 a pint
Hophouse €6.10 a pint

Any update on this free bus to Newry?
The Quays is the bottom of the Dublin road , on the left, ( going to Dublin)
Try to get an etched glass or hold the can higher from the glass when pouring
It's good marketing. From the folks that brought you Arthur's Day.
7.90 for a rockshore, I'd throw it at them
What exactly is a surger ? An appliance that fits on the can? I'll have a look around the shop for one
You need the surger for them. Buy it any supermarket or off licence. €25 normally but have seen them for 20 before Christmas in Tesco.
Maybe someone here will know, but what's the difference between guinness draft cans and these larger Surge cans. Do I need an appliance for them ? Cheers
Too valuable to throw out !! Throw a drop of 7 up into it , might liven it up a bit .

Yeah at first I thought it was a dirty glass but I tried different glasses and stuff. Just no bubbles coming up the glass at all. Has a head starting off but then it loses it as it's just flat.
Did you try pouring them into a pint glass ?
If all else fails you could try mixing them 50/50 with a pale ale or something else hoppy.
After you cross the river and canal heading south, the entrance to Quays is a few hundred metres ahead on the left.
I do not recommend the KFC in Newry - rip-off exchange rate and absolutely shïte food...
I had them in the corner away from the radiator but yep you live you learn.

Kitchen far too warm for lager. Shed/garage/under the stairs much better
Got a couple of slabs of Coors over Christmas. Had them in the corner of the kitchen. After trying a couple of cans from each slab and they are all flat. Proper disaster.
Also dedicated thread here:
I regularly climb Slieve Binnian and wet boots/smelly armpits etc do not stop me going into ASDA in Kilkeel. Great staff and no issues about you being there. Then its down to the harbour and fresh fish and chips from the fishermans caravan. That is a great day out that your missing. You must be speeding through Newry if you miss Tesco, Sainsbury and Fiveways Garage and supermarket (some great offers there and its as big as any Tesco)
I placed 5 slab orders last year to test the waters when word of MUP was spreading. All orders arrived fine, no customs issues. Some cans with broken ringpulls.
They've seemingly gotten rid of their cheaper slabs now - Egerer Super Lager and Wheat Beer Egerer Super Weizen were only €16 before shipping and fair tasty. They also did €21 Paderborner (now €24.99) and €19.99 Pilsener 5,0 (now €23.79). Meaning including shipping the cheapest slabs now are about €32 and cheapest vodka €14.80. Northern Ireland is cheaper than this if you're lucky enough to be able to afford to drive.
