I'd prefer if they sold and they got more stock in. Handy to have another supply, even if it's expensive.

It's not really that bad once you factor in delivery charge from one of the home brew supply co's (5.95 is a common enough delivery charge) if you were in a pinch and just wanted to pick up a kit.

Its only when you spend €60 quid appx you get free delivery.

they're tucked in with the beer multipacks.
They look sad :(
3 real ale cans all on their own. Nothing else.

If you're stuck, the place upstairs in Paul St. is WAY better than this even on a bad day. Central too. Unless you live in Blarney, Kanturk, Waterfall or Midleton...

Your right johnrm, though I wish they had some ok dry yeast then it would actually be a useful resource.

down to 2 kits in tesco.  paul street health shop is better, but the more outlets the better.

It's be great if they sold quickly and wilton tesco thought "That went well. maybe it would be worth bringing in a wider range"
