What are people like?


I like Pearlenbacher, a wheat beer from Lidl in 500ml cans, Brasserie in 250ml bottles from Aldi and a pint if Guinness in the Pub.

Praga. 1.55 a Bottle in Tesco..savage tack. Any of the Kinnegar craft ales. Delicious, especially their craft stout.

Cheers, I'll look into them. Pearlenbacher is €1.19 in the west of the country/€1.29 in the east.
Brasserie is €4.99 for a pack of 10 bottles.


I had a bottle of Monthy Pythons Holy Grail golden ale last night for the first time, it was nice, I'll be getting it again.

If I'm in the pub having one or two I'll drink Guinness, if it's at a proper night out though I'll drink a jameson ginger & lime (depending on the price).

At home I like changing it up but I buy Franziskaner a lot.

At the moment I'm drinking a Guinness Foreign Extra which is amazing.

For me it's Guinness Foreign Extra followed closely by Guinness Golden Ale. Both super tasty drinks, in particular the Foreign Extra. Regular Guinness tastes so watery by comparison. Their Milk Stout aint half bad either although I find it leaves me with a headache like a kick in the balls.

Also the Barefoot red wines, in particular the Malbec and Merlot. The Yellow Tail reds still get good mileage too.

O Briens have 6 Budvar for a tenner. Unreal price, although still 3 times what you'd pay for it in a Prague supermarket.

Have been drinking my own Stout brewed for christmas. Going down way too easy but it came out like O Hara's Leann Follain which I'll take as a win.

Have been drinking Sheep Stealer from Black Donkey and the Mescan blonde lately. New craft stuff comes and goes but I tend to stick with what I like these days, unless Im feeling flush enough to take a gamble on something that might be shite.

There is already a king of beers, it's called 'Bud' so why bother with all of this pish brewed by peasants in their 'workshops'?

I love Guinness Extra Stout and that is my usual sup but Lidl were selling two crates of regular Guinness yesterday for €30 So myself and Miotal Trom went halves.  It'll be mahogany shites for the next week.

those bottles of pablo red wine that are usually 20 euro are going for a tenner in a shitty off license. stocked up on a few of them for tomorrow. tbh ill drink almost anything thats put in front of me, im not fussy at all, once it gets me locked im happy.

Can't ever seem to get a deal on the Extra Stout anywhere, and I just can't substitute with the draught shite. It will be 24 cans of excelsior for me this year because I'm poor

Love the extra stout meself but the price is a killer for christmas bulk drinking.  I drink a lot of cheap lager because it doesn't give me even a fraction of the hangover stouts and ales do, so I ended up with 48 grolsch for €40 this morning.  Can't argue.  Usual choice is Karpackie, Prazsky, or Bavaria but I'm not picky.  Mostly just very fond of cans.

Local spar was doing a deal on Peroni so stacked up on that fir Christmas. Doesn't really have much of a taste to it so I end up lashing through them

Budweiser is some of the most disgusting piss out there, mislabelled too.
I have no problem supporting someone's entrepreneurial skills if the price is right.

Bud gives me the nastiest hangovers ever.I always wake up with a raging headache after drinking it.


Big fan of German and Belgian beers. Schöfferhofer in Aldi is top stuff. Lidl have 750ml bottles of Leffe and Hoegaarden in at the moment so picked up a few for the Christmas Day supping.

Sometimes pick up a few bottles of La Chouffe, little bottle of rocket fuel.

For nights out Guinness and Jameson would be the staples.
