    Saw a link posted to this elsewhere. Haven't tried it myself but it looks good. The site's in German but you can import cheap german beer for a pretty reasonable shipping rate. Should save you loads on buying fancy german beers in the off-licence.

    Seen this last week.
    Superquinn in ballinteer are doing international beers for 2e a bottle well they're doing 6 for 12e.
    Not too bad.
    They also have some nice Irish ones that would normally be quite expensive.

    Doesn't seem to be hugely cheap to me?

    In saying that, I haven't a word of German!

    Can anyone link to a good deal for European beer?

    It's not cheap, per se. It's a good deal if you are looking to purchase beer that is not available / hard to get here.

    Has anyone ever used this site before? What are the shipping rates?

    A few sites have been listed in the beer forum before. I priced one in the UK and it was about 70cent cheaper per bottle than the same stuff here, and that was after postage.

    But I did not calculate duty which could be charged.

    4. Goods purchased for Personal Use over the Internet or from mail order catalogues from a country within the EU

    Goods ordered by a private individual, over the Internet or from a mail order catalogue, from EU Member States are not liable to Customs Duty. However, they are normally liable to VAT at the rate chargeable in that country and this amount is included in the purchase price of the goods.

    Excise Duty is payable on excisable products such as alcohol and tobacco ordered for personal use from EU Member States over the Internet or from mail order catalogues - it must be paid before the goods arrive in Ireland.
    There is some way to get reimbursed of the other countries duty, but I doubt the place you buy from would go out of their way to help.

    seems to be cheap enough for the champagnes like Moet or Don.... dunno how it would work out with delivery though

    The green bush, the Johnnie walkers and a few of the rare whiskeys like Nikka Yoichi seem like good value too.

    The Middleton could be aswell depending on the year. Doesnt give one so I assume its just a 09 or 10 so only saving about €3 or €7 depending on where you buy it.
