was in that centra yesterday bigears, best value in dublin i think, 2.79 for london pride and bishops finger, just over 3 for whitstable bay organic and a few others, will be popping in there again soon. nearly fell over when i saw the prices for the kinsale beers in the spar on merrion row, a FIVER!! that's mad, anyone seen those beers for sale anywhere else? prices?

[quote:38yp8mlz]Thanks for the "heads up" on the Kinsale beers. I was worried about the Kinsale brewery; I visited it in 2004, and they had a few decent brews (a wheat, a stout and a lager, I think). But when I went back the next year, all they were brewing was the Kinsale Ale (a pale lager type brew). I'm glad to see that they are offering a few different beers again. [/quote:38yp8mlz]
I recently heard that they were not brewing in Kinsale at all at the moment - apparently their Kinsale Lager is contract brewed by Beamish, maybe someone can confirm?

The Kinsale Lager is, and always was, brewed by Beamish. The others are, as far as I know, brewed by themselves. This lodged in my mind since Saturday, but don't ask [i:30pqv5b2]who[/i:30pqv5b2] said it.

Kinsale beers are stoked in Spar Stillorgan. Including the 5l Party Keg.
The Cream Stout is very nice
