Hello Everybody <!-- s8) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cool.gif" alt="" title="Cool" /><!-- s8) -->
First sorry 4 my english <!-- s:? --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_confused.gif" alt="" title="Confused" /><!-- s:? -->
I'm collector of irish beer labels. I would like swap some irish labels from irish brewpubs and microbreweries. I have small amount of rare labels from breweries for exchange like Messrs Maquire , Porterhouse, Franciscan Well, Biddy Early, Kinsale, Dublin Brewing Co. and Carlow.
The best and fastest contact with me is <!-- e --><a href="This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.">This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. I live in Dublin.

Not so sure I can help you Cooper (I will email you anyway!), but I am interested to know how many ICB folk collect beer labels. I do, though only of beers that I have actually had. I am not interested in beer labels from other countries, unless they are attached to full bottles!

I also have a fair collection of beermats picked up over the last 35 years visiting pubs!

Own up now!

I collected them from my round the world trips, but for some reason I don't tend to collect them from short weekends or holidays away. dunno why.
Don't have any to swap either though, sorry.
