You can still get Harp on tap in a lot of places in North Kerry for some reason
Everyone drinks it around there. Iâd say itâs the most bought pint in those villages around that area. I could never understand it.
North Kerry and Louth the only places they deliver Kegs of Harp to a fella told me one day. I think itâs still big in the North though
The pint bottles come out of Belfast now.
The Kegs come out St James Gate, but were brewed in Dundalk up until 5 years ago
Parts of West Limerick too
Ive been drinking a lot around there over the last six months minus the last two obviously and itâs extremely popular.
Theyâre following Trumpâs directives/suggestions re: ingesting dangerous cleaning products.
Harp is a liquid concoction of bleach, dettol and washing up liquid with a faintish taste of lager off it. Laugh at DJT all you like but the C-19 figures for North Kerry are zero.
Do you think the Healy-Raes are stupid, allowing their voters to poison themselves?

Iâd never drank in my life until recently but on tap it wasnât bad. All the locals were drinking it as well which usually is a pointer as to whats good.
Is there a correlation between stuffing chips and pints of harp I wonder
Lads will do serious damage today with that weather
In the early 70âs there were 3 taps, Guinness, Smithwicks and eventually Harp. The âcoolerâ dudes would force down the Harp for the sake of looking trendy. Despite the efforts of Sally OâBrien, other forces entered the lager segment and Harp became un-cool.
It has survived in the 06 which in itself begs a question. Is it the ingestion of Harp that gives the Nordies that manic aggression for which theyâre gaining notoriety?.
Harp would be ideal as a drench for ticks on sheep, other than that itâs utter piss.

I was told by a man who used to drink gallons of Harp that there was âold harpâ which was a noble drink and ânew harpâ where they changed the recipe and was pure stink.

Loads of Harp taps in NYC the last time I was there.
I think Budweiser came in and replaced Harp as lads liked all things American then.
Budweiser is worse than Dutch Gold

Will ye for fucks sakes give up that dirty bastard of a habit?
Diago used to brew Budweiser over here and pushed pubs into it. They lost the contract last year afaik hence the push for rockshore over last 2 years

the Irish are obsessed with drink. Ireland could be a world leader only for it
A cold pint of Budweiser is grand, a bad pint is woeful though.
