Go get nice beer 13 years 4 months ago #1

- All 500ml M&S beers are now 3 for €7 (spotted on Mary St.)
This is probably closer to the price they should have been all along.
Still, "Southwold Winter IPA" is essentially this[/url:5b7mltyh] which is a steal at that price.

- Top New Zealand breweries are now in stock at Redmond's, Ranelagh.
Including Tuatara, Renaissance, Epic, and 8 Wired.
This[/url:5b7mltyh] is a hop monster; 3D glasses included. (Seriously.)

- Sierra Nevada Celebration is in stock at drinkstore, with others to follow, I'm sure.

Hoppy Christmas!

Since you mention "Hoppy Christmas", Brewdog have a beer out at the moment called exactly that, and I wasn't dissapointed with it. I got it in Bradleys in Cork, but presume it is around the country.

Great to see Redmond's have brought in a few interesting NZ beers themselves. Went in yesterday as I love 8 Wired, but unfortunately they didn't have my two favourites (iStout and Saison Sauvin) - they've got the rest of the range though. Healthy selection of Renaissance, Epic and Tuatara beers (none of which I've tried before).

But my good Lord they're expensive. Ended up spending 34quid on 4 50cl/65cl bottles (it's christmas so that's ok...just!) The owner ensured me that the bottles were all fresh - allegedly bottled less than 2 weeks before they were shipped to Ireland last month - so I thought I'd trust him and get a few hoppy ones. He wasn't lying - they're in great condition. Had an Epic Armageddon IPA yesterday (being the end of the world and all that) and it was the freshest tasting import I've had in the country for a long time. Now, I'm not saying these bottles are good value (a tenner for a DIPA in an offie is never going to sit well with me to be fair), but they're bloody tasty.

It's the holiday season lads, so you may as well treat yourselves to a couple of decent bottles as KeeganAles said!

Merry Christmas everyone!
