The kind of muck AAI were peddling before MUP kicked in. No such thing as cheap alcohol in Ireland even before it was introduced.

If you think that’s bad take a look at their annual accounts.
They peddle false and misinformation
Unfortunately, advocacy groups tend to be the least reliable commentators on their particular issue

That’s TWO standard units, [per HSE guidance](https://www2.hse.ie/wellbeing/alcohol/improve-your-health/weekly-low-risk-alcohol-guidelines.html). 75/2 = €0.37
They’re not lying, they’re being a bit deceptive on the beer/cider side of things since you almost always get 2 units/”drinks” in a single serving.
A lobby group entirely funded by the state is hardly representative of the electorates views. Insane that the government pays a hard-line organisation to set the government agenda.
