More reasons to boycott Wetherspoons

Please do. Also, have you any recommendations for good local beers for an upcoming business trip to Dublin?

Guinness?

Guinness?

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.

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"!!

Yeah - effectively they wanted to make loads of money and did not give a damn about the 'product'

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)

Congratulations on your 10,000th post!

Y SNIP er.

Cheers -- and it's a post about beer as well!

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.

No Air pistols use air, CO2 pistols use CO2, spring loaded rifles use... yes a spring
