Btw, no -- you can't get it in the US. Believe me, I tried. I used todrink it when I lived in Nice, France and in London. It's really toobad you can't get it in the States. It would do really well here.Haven't had it in a can before, but I can't imagine it being betterthan on draft. And if you get a good bartender, he'll even make aclover in the head when he pours it!

Although I've heard Kilkenny in cans is not as appealing as fromdraught, and I can't confirm the how legit the website is, you canorder Kilkenny online and have it delivered to your home.

My husband spent four years in Sicily and swore to me that Kilkennywas the bomb, the best beer. Being the Beer experts that we imagineourselves to be Forgein or Micro-brews, I couldn't wait to try it. Ona recent trip to Canada we found it and bought all the store had tooffer. It did not let me down. From the widget, the head, the ambercolor, it far surpasses most beers. Sadly I was only allowed threefrom what we brought back and now I too am on the hunt for Kilkenny inthe USA.

I agree with almost all comments above, i.e. "Better on tap" & "similar to Caffreys" etc.But Truely the bottom line is "Kilkenny will far out sell any other beer in its class"NOW IF I CAN ONLY GET SOME IN THE UNITED STATES I'LL FEEL COMPLETE AGAIN!From the Bar Back at the former Shamrock, Bitburg, Germanycomiso@hotmail.com

I have been trying a different beer for quite some time tofind one I will stick to. I have tried beers from my homelandEngland and my country of residence, Australia. I have now startedtrying things from I reland - Beamish Stout was the first oneI tried but I didn't like it. But to the point....I gave this oneand Guinness a go and while I enjoyed the latter this oneis absolutely superb. Like Victoria Bitter is the leader ofthe lager market in Australia (Yes, catch up with the times!Fosters is obsolete!!) this is the WORLD leader in red alesbut unlike Vic. Bitter, this one deserves that position.If I had more $$$ on me, and I oculd find it in bottles ratherthan 4-pack-cans this one would be in my fridge every single time.It has a creamy texture which is smooth (obviously) and it has a sweet edge to it. But my final word....NEVER drink after eating salty food! 9.5/10, .5 off for that last bit!

To Dave (above),I'm kind of inclined to believe you. Kilkenny in Australiais thick blond creamy ale (great from the tap), thought I'venot seen Smithwick's here in Aust. When I was in Ireland in'93 I never saw Kilkenny, but tried Smithwick's (from abottle). My Irish friends in Dungarvan seemed to think thatKilkenny/Smithwick's were one and same, though I must saythe taste was different, much like what you say...- sheldon

Lets clear something up. Here in Canada, Smithwicks andKilkenny are two different Ales. Perhaps the confusionstems from the fact that Kilkenny is brewed by Smithwicks,I'll confirm that. However, Kilkenny is very smooth, witha thick creamy head, very similar to Caffery's Irish Ale.Smithwicks is more like a regular Ale, not as smooth, alittle "fizzy" and slightly more hopped.- Dave
