TOPIC:

Boyle's in Kildare have brewed a beer at Trouble Brewing and are having a cask event run by our very own Bren and Kellie. Bren brewed the beer at Trouble. There will likely be a bit of a history lesson. The beer is called Brigid's Autumn Ale.

Kildare town is easily accessed from Dublin by train and bus via Bus Eireann and Dublin Coach (D'Olier street). It's also a stones throw from Kildare village outlets so the shuttle bus can also be used.

Saturday 12th of September

To pipe in here. A reminder that Kildare is easily and cheaply accessible by public transport. For instance, the Dublin Coach M7 express to Kildare Village is only €5 each way. It's practically every 30 minutes.

Bren's place is about 20 minutes walk from the town and Kildare Village, where you get the Dublin coach back is about 10 - 15 minutes walk from his place but there are also sleepover arrangements as he said.

Hopefully we will get a nice group heading down. [b:3baxa1s2]€16 for 4 pints and food is a bargain[/b:3baxa1s2] I reckon and then we can go drink Bren dry at his place! <!-- s:mrgreen: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt="" title="Mr. Green" /><!-- s:mrgreen: -->

[color=#FF0000:3b4zhhs7]A side note the beer is a strong ale at 5.??% <!-- s:o --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_surprised.gif" alt="" title="Surprised" /><!-- s:o --> it is poured in a nice pint to line glass with a proper frothy head in line with @maltcrackers sensible drinking policy is available in nice half pint glasses at HALF PRICE so you can enjoy the beer fresh and at your own pace. The entry fee will cover costs only so not for profit as profit eaten by food costs. So come help us promote REAL BEER this is as KILDARE and local as it gets....Minch malt from the maltings, crushed here at maltcracker and brought to Trouble as fresh as a daisy, BOYLES Honey from the national stud , kildare brewer, Kildare brewery, kildare pub REAL LOCAL ALE and the first Cask cracked opn in Kildare for at least 60 years that we know about.
