TOPIC:

ICB got a mention in the May issue of Food & Wine magazine in a Hot 100 List of some sort. ICB were number 58 for "best community for real beer lovers". It wasn't a ranked list, just a strangely put together list of anything drink related.

Other entries of interest:
68 - most distinctive beer - Harviestoun Ola Dubh Special Reserve 12
33 - best home brew - <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="www.ibrew.ie">www.ibrew.ie
15 - best irish brewed summer drink - Double L Real Cider

Bit sketchy on the details since I read it in work a few hours ago

Ibrew is an over priced gimmick, a rip off.

very +1, shows you the power of flash html and poor back ground checking

There was also a 'Best Gateway Beer', which recommended Belfast Lager and Galway Hooker.

Also a short piece on the Porterhouse festival, with a pic. of Peter from the Porterhouse enjoying a bottle of Oyster Stout.
