Got a 10 box of Hope brewery cans there in McHughs tonight. Itās Hopes birthday and they are having a Zoom tasting event with these beers. Your man asked if I wanted to go on the Zoom and I told him to fuck off for himself in the nicest possible way. Some serious cans in there, a stout thatās 9.9% and a Howth gorse infused Trippel thatās 8.8%.
Wow
Chances of Spot approval tomorrow 2/10.
He doesnāt drink them himself. He gives most of them away to friends.
Thatās a smashing off licence. Surely one of the best in Dublin.
8 500ml cans of Guinness for 8ā¬ In Tescos if you have a club card.
You can get the real stuff again. They can pour that muck down the drain
Great value, got 4 for 8 last night.
Iām piling on the pounds during lockdown. I either need to give up or change beers.
Iāve been drinking mostly weissbier lately, which is lovely butā¦
Is there any lite beers out there that taste reasonably good*.
*Perhaps if they tasted bad I might be less inclined to take one out of the fridge.
Rock shore light is 80 calories.
Would you try a hard seltzer ?
Hard seltzerās are muck. At least the one I drank was. Wouldnāt touch another one. Youād be better off not drinking.
Unless you want to get drunk but lose the junk in your trunk.
Thanks , but I wouldnātā¦
Whiskey
Hangovers just got too bad.
How much of it were you drinking?
It got to the stage that if I had two home measures, probably 3-4 pub measures, Iād be seriously sick the following day. I could drink it no problem before, donāt know what changed.
I was blaming the cheapness of the usual contenders on the whisky thread here before. I had a bottle of Black Barrel at Christmas. I found I could drink that no problem.
Had a Veltins and a Bitburger tonight.
Now trying Manislav, a āCzech styleā lager. Grand pilsner, 1.49 for 500ml bottle brewed in a business park in Dundalk.
