The new ale in the ground

[Amw79]

Not a patch on a massive can of Faxe.

Ah man, that picture took me back.

When I used to play 5-a-side one of the lads always had a 4 pack of Faxe, which he drank over the course of the hour.

Good times.

Breaker. Warm cans of.

An uncle of my Mrs said that in Cork they tend to hold Murphys on draft more so then Guinness. Do you know if it is true, he said it's much better on draft then Guinness

Murphy's is the local brewery in Cork
Murphy's is a bit sweeter than Guinness
Sells ok in Dublin in parts because it's cheaper than Guinness and some pubs do specials on it for 4 Euro

Last time this came up I'm sure someone said we were in talks with the Heineken company to get their ale. Not necessary Heineken but one or a few of their offshoots.

Lol.

Used to drink that when we were kids.

Four cans and then chuck your ring up

 

[bluerobert]

Only passed through.
As a catholic from Dublin I've to be very careful where I drink when I'm up North which is rarely to be honest with you.[/QUOTE

I know you Dubs like to think the rest of Ireland especially up north is still pretty backward but so long as you don't head to the Shankill draped in a tri colour you will be sound haha. When I lived there I hated Belfast with a passion and I hated visiting it but it's come on massively in the past few years mate. You should give it a chance. As an Englishman living in Strabane I can tell you it's not as bad as people think anymore

They basically brew everything so just to be in tune with every other football stadium in the land it will be flat, warm and weak

A few of the local scallywags seem to enjoy Oranjeboom from my local off liciense. Anyone know what it's like? I should add that the place has a sign up asking patrons to stop asking for tick or a loan off whoever is working

Coke on draught won't happen because the profit is in the bottles.
In my local you can get a one and a half litre bottle of coke / 7 up etc for 3 Euro.
It's the city centre pubs that rip you off

 

[Armaghtoffee]

Sorry don't like Guinness!

There's always one......

 

[ashwuk76]

Yup sorry! Always found it too heavy. Although I've been told it tastes different in Ireland but never been.

 

[PhilM]

Did you ever drink the lethal - Red Erik, which was normally alongside it in Cains pubs ?

Definition of rocket fuel.

The small town ones to mate, all the locals where my Mrs is from only offer glass bottled coke
