It's a bit mad that the largest suburban areas in Dublin are craft beer deserts. Dublin 15, 22 and 24.

I can confirm (being a Clondalkin resident) that Clondalkin village is a craft beer desert. Having said that; Molloys off licence in Clondalkin Village (Watery Lane) often has a reasonable selection, as does the Carry Out place (relatively new) around the corner beside the Xtravision opposite Dunnes stores.

After that, I would go to Quinlan's pub in Clondalkin village if forced to. It's a decent pub but no ICB.

Ah feck this....might just get them to go to town!! I'm not wasting my saturday drinking crap!! I thought there might be one place that sells something decent. It's a joke!!!

I was able to get Erdinger at The Old Mill and Molloys on a couple of occassions. Molloys off license in Tallaght has avery good selection as the manager is a huge craft beer fan. You can ask to buy the beers there and have them placed at the bar for you.
Apart from that there's Captain America's which has Paulaner on draught.

There's a new fella managing molloys in tallaght now. My mate used to manage it up until recently.
