Just my take on good craft beer and good food:

A lot of the great beer pubs have great food BUT the portions are too large for the average snack drinker come nibbler.

I am NOT going out for a meal in the pub so why would I spend €8 , 10 or more on a lovely meal when I don't want one or have the stomach to eat one??

I would like to drink a couple of beers and have a tasty snack.

Its not that I won't pay the money its just that I've seen the portions and they are HUGE <!-- s:shock: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked" /><!-- s:shock: -->

I would rather pay €5 or 6 for a small but tasty snack like Cheese and crackers or just 1 good sausage in batch bread.

Will

Ps: @geoff and B&C: This applies particularly on the Beoir meets. I arrive, am peckish but cannot find a small portion to eat. After the Cheese 'n Beer weekend I would just love some cheese 'n soda bread/crackers/oatmeal cookies ( my fave. with good cheese

Get some pork pies in.

Pies and pasties are beers natural accompaniments (but I might be biased)

Great to hear, Kennys was a haunt of my for a while when I was younger, I must return <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

We should organise a Lucan pub crawl. Start at the County and then there is the nice downhill walk to Kenny's.

Well lads anytime you want to do that I might join you on the crawl! Just give me a heads up and I'll get you a nice discount on the beers so you can enjoy a night that won't ruin your pocket!


Yeah like check out facebook for all our beers so you can see all the trouble you can get into <!-- s:twisted: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_twisted.gif" alt="" title="Twisted Evil" /><!-- s:twisted: -->
