Title: Bad news and good news
Post by: admin on December 13, 2012, 05:04:13 PM
I was just in the Lucan County.

Bad news: Shandon and Dark Arts taps are gone, for good.
Hooker is still there as is Ór.

Good news: Pilsner Urquell on tap.

Slightly less good news: all O'Hara's beers in bottles, along with Crean's Lager and Toby's Armagh cider.

(Crean's is in 330ml bottles, so I can't see it lasting)

As Pilsner Urquell is a macro, presumably with some distribution muscle behind it,  hopefully it will be turning up in lots of places.

330ml bottles really piss me off (unless it's Belgian for some reason  :o)

Regular strength beer in small bottles for a premium price, come on!
