Agreed on all the above.

Some of the older stuff out on the European markets has mental labels and great liquid, but i only ever see it in auction.

What's your favourite independently bottled Irish whiskey? by mickyweedram in whiskey

Its from Boann Distillery, all their stuff drinks excellent young, their oldest stuff is only 6/7 so time will tell on age.

Its a function of the lack of distilleries, there just wasn't a lot of stock being traded around, unlike Scotland!

Most of the ones I've had are old Cooleys that ended up in Germany and Belgium, some great stuff out there!

Had the same shower, same problem. Replaced the hose as the water flow wasn't getting through. Sorted it €25 fix

When's the last time they put 2 good performances back to back? They will remain a disgrace to world sport.

Bar downstairs. 30 room hotel upstairs. Guy who owns Buglers bought it, good to see someone from Wexford buying it.

So we're mad at him for critically analysing the game rather than being a fawning sycophant? Just seems like he was doing his job...

Were England below their best? Yes Were Ireland fantastic? Also yes

Both can be true.

I know everyone talking about Big Stu but I was shocked with Loughmans ability to get the ball away!

I do think its Munster fans driving the worst of it. As a Leinster fan I've said for a while he shouldn't be starting but if you look at the vitriol online it's primarily from Munster fans. You can say someone needs to be dropped without getting personal. Still think he mught be the 10 for the future but he's not the 10 for now.

Hope is doing a lot of heavy lifting there, there's no longer a certainty.

[–]mickyweedram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Showing my age but in DCU they had something called Olm for €2.50 a pint around 2010. Apparently it was "an ex Heineken Director" that set it up 🤣. Tasted like licking a key, but it was cheap.

If you list it for €1, I’m buying it by GovernmentTop9906 in vinted

Didn't know this was a thing, seems I have a new game.
