    Picked up a couple of cases of the Budějovický Budvar from Tesco at the weekend (12 bottles for €15). Long time since I had it but it's still as good as ever. Almost too easy to drink. Czech brewed stuff as well, so it's proper.

    Well worth it.

    Is that based on having tasting it, or on general principles (which may be sound) about its origins :)

    I just want to take this moment to say that Supervalu's alcohol deals are f*ckin shocking.

    Their wine deals are just rolled over from month to month & their spirits deals are pathetic. End rant.

    Is monkey 47 really that good a gin to justify its price? It seems to be the most premium of gins. Iv never tried it but curious as to whether its noticeably different.

    They can feck off with the "from €20" crap. State what the price will be for each product ffs. Is this legal?

    Life ain't always empty.

    They couldn't keep up with demand of all there brands. They had to streamline and focus on the most popular, Carlsberg, Budweiser, Guinness etc.
    However good news I'm told stocks are now going back into shops since yesterday.

    Wonder what the long term plan for the brand is, they've done virtually no promotion and I'd say the number of pubs you can get it in draft is in the low 100's.

    Does anywhere in Ireland do those 5L beer kegs anymore? I know the Heineken ones weren't that popular and they more or less flopped but are there any others around anywhere?
