Everything has to have some sort of drama attached to it, in order to sell ‘news’.

This is why we take the car up to Newry form time to time. Those Sainsbury’s 4 for 3 specials on fine Trappist ales are a literal godsend.

My German friend has said that the only surefire way to make Germans riot is if the price of beer goes way up.

Spend most of my summers in Germany. A crate of 20 500ml bottles can range from 14 – 20 euro plus deposit on the bottles.

Its mad. Im a smoker, I smoke rollies but here in ireland 20 john player is made in tallaght, Dublin but cost over 20€ but in spain they cost about 6€, a 30 gram of amberleaf is 27€ but in spain I can get a 50gram of amberleaf for 11 euro or 25£ in northern Ireland for 50 gram also. And the price will just keep going up because they say they want people to stop smoking but really its to get more money.

In Germany, beer is classed as food

Also one of the most expensive countries in Europe for electricity and probably general cost of living. But the government don’t care.

I guess that’s why we drink so little beer.

We should be riding hoverbusses to work at this stage. But the only ones who benefit are the multiple house owning TDs.

I was in Germany a few weeks ago. Pints of beer were €3 in one of the pubs that I was in.
6 pack of Corona Extra was €4.99.
It’s better for my health that I stay in Ireland from now on.

Publicans are tax collectors. All the irrational hatred on this sub for self employed people in pub trade & the fact is we have the second highest excise in EU

The point here is the Irish government have done it right, while the German government can either trust their people not to overly consume a dangerous toxic substance or they don’t care.

Just returned from Ireland at the weekend, did a trip to the Midleton distillery while there. Was shopping in Aldi yesterday evening and they had 700ml bottles of Jamson for €14, nothing close to that price back in Ireland.

It’s just getting stupid at this point, leave us drink or just ban it

Is homebrewing a thing in Ireland?
I got into it over here in Aus and not only is it far cheaper but I always have the beer I like on hand.

How much research did this really need.
Il drink to that 🍻
The government will do nothing.
In fact, I’d imagine their next action on alcohol will be to increase MUP in line with inflation.
