These are the beers that keep sneaking onto my tab in Dublin, whether I’ve meant to be sensible or not. Some are pure comfort, some are for when xG says the night still has goals in it. Nothing fancy, just what I actually order when the whistle goes and the chat starts.

Name	Style	Brewery	ABV	Typical order time	My take
1Guinness Draught	Irish dry stout	Guinness, St. James’s Gate	4.2%	First pint after full-time, before anyone mentions expected goals	Like a reliable centre-back: not flashy, just quietly hits a 7 out of 10 every single night.
2Smithwick’s Red Ale	Irish red ale	Smithwick’s (Guinness)	3.8%	Game was a 0–0 slog, need something easy to sip while we pretend it was interesting	Soft, malty, and absolutely no drama — the James Milner of beers, does a tidy job and never complains.
3Hop House 13 Lager	Lager	Guinness	4.1%	Sun still up, outdoor table, someone’s ‘only staying for one’ round	Big on fizz, bit of hop, perfect when your brain wants crisp and your heart still wants a pint glass.
4Rollover Session IPA	Session IPA	Whiplash Beer	3.8%	You’ve accidentally promised ‘just one more’ for the third time	All the juicy hop noise at five‑a‑side fitness levels, not full ninety‑minutes legs.
5Rockshore Lager	Lager	Guinness	4.0%	Hot day, beer garden, someone just ordered a massive bowl of chips for the table	Cold, clean and built for volume; this is your 90‑minute pressing game in a glass.
6Kilkenny Irish Cream Ale	Irish cream ale	Guinness	4.3%	When you want something smooth but can’t face another stout on a school night	Creamy head, soft body, zero stress — like watching a 3–0 home win you never doubted after the 10th minute.
