i had one when i came down off the volcano in hawaii and it tasted like the greatest beer i ever had, tried it again recently... what AM said.
 


Coincidentally had it for the first time in Hawaii as well,delicious drink with a slice of orange in it.

Was told its lovely to mix half in half with Guinness,called a Dark Side Of The Moon,i was suspicious but it was very nice

Last time i had one in Ireland was in Dublin airport but they dont seem to have it anymore.

Most definately have to agree with that, I also have a particular liking for Curim Gold from O'Haras, and at 4 fo €10 in my local off licence its hard to resist.

Tasty German beer and great value.

Love the section in dunnes/tesco which stores the likes of Erdinger, Paulaner, Tiger Beer, etc.
Always check there to see what is on sale . Can be expensive when not on sale, but can always fall back on Tyskie

Used to be Guinness when I was home in Ireland. Drank any sort of lager or belgian beer while in England but lately I've been on a diet so I've been cutting down on the beer.
 
On the vodka instead. no mixer.
 
Snow Queen from kazakhstan is the best drink I've ever had in my life. Unfortunately can't get it in many pubs here so I end up drinking Chase. Any others I'll normally mix.

Most pubs here don't sell local brew, the ones that do are generally expensive. I also rarely go to the pub because it's a fckin rip off. Had 1 pint in O'Neill's on Suffolk St on Sunday. €5.60. Won't be going back there.

They(Mexicans) don't put lime in a lot of their other beers, only the terrible ones.
