	Aldi used to have a good Black beer, but not sure if they still have it.

	Thanks, I'll have a look. Don't need a lot. I'm happy with Estrella but I've got a mate coming over for a few days who prefers a darker beer.

	at Carrefour. Why go any further? The finest real ale in London and not bad here. Also....think about this.....it is about 1.50 euros for half a litre !! All my business chums in the City are livid as they have to pay GBP 3.50 to 3.80 a pijnt !! Where to find it? Should I tell you ? Well it's in the UK/International section along with awful jams, chutneys and all the crap I left the UK for cos I couldn't stand the expensive rubbish any more. But the lack of real ale hurts, neven with a decent Rioja at 1.50/1.80 euros. You'll frind Guiness and Mackays there too but the Irish rubbish isn;t fit to clean the drains with unle3ss, of course, your throat is a drain (discuss?)

	Thanks for the tip Colin. That works out at just over a third of the City price (unless my conversions are up the creek). Mind, with their wages it shouldn't bother them too much ? I never liked Guiness the few times I tried it in England but in Eire it's a different matter altogether. Something to do with the water I'm told as the stuff you buy in England is brewed in London.
