    Right here! No fecking Budweiser though, I'll try any beer except that stomach stripping sh1te, it has no business calling itself beer!!!!

    Bud is awful, tried it once and never again. Is it full of petrol, or formaldehyde, or donkey spúnk or something?

    Linden comes in 6% too comes in silvery cans. The 4.5% is in yellow cans, both lovely though! Do try it, you wont regret it
    Ah I've only ever seen the yellow ones. Must keep an eye out for these silver ones so...
    Druids is a madmans drink, I stopped drinking it a while back, makes me a proper asshole, and it gives me 2 day hangovers.
    Yes, but you grow to love all that after a while! :pac:
    Devils Bit is better
    That's the one that comes in two litre plastic bottles, yeah? I'm afraid that's just a bit too classy and fancy for me, now....

    I make my own cider. 5L is two weeks into a 4 week brew cycle. 9.3% too.

    Pre recession it was out to the pub for copious pints of Carlsberg. Nowadays its a 6 pack of Prazsky (beautiful yet cheap Czech beer) and maybe head out for 1 close to closing.

    Never had Prazsky, but I know the scenario well.

    Excelsior €3.06 for 4 cans in lidl, rough stuff but desperate times require desperate measures..

    Edit: Hint I find if you put them in the freezer 45 mins before you want them they get that cold
    it kills the rough taste..

    Ah Linden Village... brings me back to my student days. Cider was and still is my pint of choice. Used to drink some awful shite back then. There was one cider i used to drink that was spelt Cyder made in somerset or somewhere like that in England

    I now only drink large bottles of Bulmers with ice. Yes,there is no recession round here.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,325 ✭✭✭ItsAWindUp


    All cider is piss and I don't smoke, so, in summary, you are talking absolute balderdash.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,298 ✭✭✭cosmicfart


    Hate cider Stonehouse champagne cider Bavaria Green Black URGH knacker drinking days are well behind me recession or no


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 132 ✭✭Shiroki


    Devils Bit is better
    This makes me sad


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 655 ✭✭✭splendid101


    Now I get Franziskaner instead of Paulaner or Erdinger.

    And Aldi salt and vinegar sticks instead of Tayto chipsticks.

    What a crazy life I lead.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 54 ✭✭Richarz


    I don't care what anyone says. Dutch Gold is actually a better tasting and better made beer than Coors, Budweiser, Miller and Carlsberg.

    For me, this is my new version of the pre-recession:

    "8 cans of bulmers and 20 benson please"

    This is how the pinch has affected one of my spending habits, so

    Like me, do you still enjoy the finer things in life, but without the fancy brand names?

    What have you lot changed, but still do the same (if you get me)



    Linden village is nicer than bulmers too.

    Too be honest, I just gave up the smoking. Works out saving you a hell of alot of money and is better for you !

    I'll never go back to drinking expensive drink. I'll be drinking Tuborg for the rest of my life.

    I'm reminded of that old adage; a hand in the bird is worth two in the bush.

    Snackwise (Aldi's brand) are actually made by Tayto,the Galahad lager they sell isn't bad and very cheap.More and more people are buying cheap beers from the likes of Aldi and Lidl.Next week they have a 700ml bottle of vodka for €9.99
