| I first tried Smithwicks while on my honeymoon in Ireland. For years i wished it would come to the U.S. and 2 years ago it came to DC. it is now being served in more and more places. but still only on draft.
I found Smithwicks to be perfect I can't really put it into words. Lighter than Guiness but with more umphhh than Harp. |

| My husband & I had a vacation in Ireland for 15 days and it was beautiful. I wish I could live there. Anyway while vacationing there I fell in love with a beer called Smithwicks. When I got back to Wisconsin I kept telling everyone about the beer. I even found a website where other people were talking about Smithwicks, but we couldn't find it anywhere. My husband and I went to the corner bar for a fishfry and I couldn't beleive my eyes. They have Smithwicks on tap. I was so happy we got Smithy's in Wisconsin. There is also a place in Madison that has it. I can just walk out my front door and go about 2 blocks to have my Irish beer. |

| Swithwicks is now available in Pittsburgh in some pubs... and suprisingly a couple of beer distributors. I believe it is slowly becoming more available, begining with the east coast then making its way west. Good thing I live on the east coast |

| While visiting my brother who lives in Ireland I was introduced to Smithwicks beer. We love it! I live in the Atlantic City area of South Jersey and am trying to find area bars that have Smithwicks on tap. I have found a place in Cape May but hope to find someplace closer.
Still looking.

| I first tasted the sweetness in Ireland last fall, it was amazing, since then I've had it in the bottle like four times, but it's hard to come by. And I couldn't find it anywhere else in Europe besides Ireland. But I'm in luck, this weekend I'm going to an Irish Pub in Columbus that has it on tap!!! Wish me luck, I'll have one for y'all haha yeah. |

| Found Smithwicks or (Smithicks) as they prononce it in Kiltimagh co. Mayo Eire. I was 14 years old and having the time of my life and this beer was the reason for the nights we all went out for the dances. Mind you this was 1986. There were not that many regulations in small towns at that time. When I found smithwicks in a little pub in Marietta 4 months ago it brought back so many memories. My dad was still alive and drinking beer with me, The nettles we were all stung by and the fresh air of Ireland. I am 33 now and you can bet I will be back. Not to Dublin but the small town that my mother and her brothers grew up in. See Ya T. Cavin |

| Great beer. Unexpectedly found on tap at the Jolly Drayman Pub, in the Briar Lea Inn situated on Rte 2 in Bethel, ME. Great hosts, too: Jenny (native of the west country in England) and her husband, Richard. Excellent grub also makes this a great stop (or, destination.) |

| Smithwicks is available in bottles at all Meijer Stores in Michigan. 6 pack runs for about $7.50 plus deposit. For those in the Nashville area, make a stop at Mulligans across from the Wildhorse Saloon and have a Smithwicks, authentic Irish music every weekend. |

| I first discovered Smithwicks on a Guiness-drinking trip to Ireland. The bartender was amused that I had come specifically to drink only Guiness and see the sights. He suggested I try a Smithwicks. The flavor was nothing like anything I had ever tasted! I had only one Guiness my first night in Dublin and drank Smithwicks at every pub, in every little town, every day the rest of the vacation. |

| They have Smithwick's on tap at Mulligan's Pub on 2nd Avenue in Nashville. Good stuff. Hard to decide between that and Guinness sometimes. |

| Smithwicks beer was served at the Renaissance Fair in Gold Canyon, Arizona this past February 06. I fell in love with it then, and am very happy to report that it is available in 6-packs in the LA area. I find it at the Ralph's on Wilshire Blvd. just west of the 405 freeway. Am planning a road trip across the country, to PA this summer. Will be looking for it enroute. Cheers! |
