    Guinness?
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

      Industrial muck. OK if there's nothing better available.

        The trick is to find a pub with a decent selection and then make your choice. There are still far too many Guinness + Bud + Smithwicks Red Ale pubs around.

        Brew Dock near Connolly Station is good. JW Sweetman is meant to be good but I've not got round to it yet.

          O'Hara's Stout
          Yardsman Lager

          Guinness in Dublin tends to be better than the stuff we get too.

          Go in one pub, try a different one and then go back to the first. the price sometimes drops because your "regulars"!!

            There are still plenty of small brewery's who want to stay that way which i think was what really pissed people off - especially those who pumped money into brew dog in the beginning.

            Got to be honest I used to like their stuff - but I really have gone off 'craft' beer recently - just seems to be a competition to see who can get the most 'hoppiness' which just manifests it's self as bad grapefruit juice according to my taste buds. (on the light ones anyway - do not tend to go for the darker ones)

                Yup, the whole country might soon. There'll only be real ale left and proper cider.

                "Fresh" meats in supermarkets will have shorter shelf lives and cyclists won't be able to inflate their tyres with those little capsules they like to litter the countryside with.

                And while air pistols also use CO2 as a propellant, it's good news for those of us with spring loaded air rifles - we aren't affected.
                …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore
