    I find the REALLY big supervalus have the best selection of drink etc

    Like in most if not all lidls you can't get Moretti and there's a limited choice

    For a fiver you can't go wrong. It's no world-bearer, but ut certainly does me.

    There's a merlot for the same price called Grapevine and it's also grand stuff if you're looking for a bit of variety..

    Anyone ever buy the 6 pack bottles of 500ml rheinbacher in Aldi I find them very similar to lidls perlenbacher.

    €7.49 for 6 rheinbacher 500ml bottles in Aldi kinda similar price to lidls perlenbacher,apart from when lidl do the great xxl 8 for 8 euro is it.

    I find them both fine and similar,the rheinbacher is 4.9%alc

    It's kind of back to the future.
    They are half pint bottles.
    All bottles were either a half pint or a pint years ago.
    Once you know what you are buying it's ok.

    Yes very similar, and a cheap way to get pissed. Yes the XXL stuff is the biz, but the other two alternatives you mentioned are absolutely fine too.

    Last time I had the Rheinbacher I found it a bit rough and really fizzy, but that was a really long time ago as well. The Perlenbacher, even the normal every day 6-pack x 500ml they do, is actually surprisingly decent.

    As someone who does a yearly booze cruise to France which wasn't possible this year, I'm leaning heavily on kooliburra reserve Shiraz from aldi. At €4.99 a pop and 14% volume, it ain't half bad. Good reviews on vivino also

    Myself and the missus had one of the Kooliburra's recently. Was absolutely SHOCKED when told it was a fiver. Although I'm admittedly not a wine-afficionado, I found it a very nice little number.

    Have you tried the pale/blond varieties?
    They are completely different beers to the original Smithwicks.

    I love the blonde. It’s my favourite drink. I’ve got my own personalised swithwicks blonde glass aswell. When things start opening again would def recommend the smithwicks tour in Kilkenny.
