The product is Poachers Tonic Water for those wondering
Love me some Poachers!!!!! Great brand, great products. Love their new cans too.
✊️
So i don’t know what it says, lol
Rí Rá lager list their ingredients as Gaeilge freisin! They’re brewed in Wicklow I think and can usually find them in Carry Out off licences
Also have a lovely slogan on the can:
Tír gan beoir, tír gan anam
(A country without beer is a country without a soul)
Would Fíoruisce Gaelach be a translation error? Surely it would make more sense to be Fíoruisce Éireannach? Correct me if I’m wrong, just curious 🙂
Who gets to make up all the new words?
Posted a year or 2 ago, randomly only the same brand sorbet iirc from a middle aisle special had a sticker with ingredients in Irish (like they do English ingredient stickers on foreign language foods)! Guess someone thought they didn’t speak English in Ireland (which was printed on it along with iirc Portuguese or Spanish).
I have little Irish but I always say slán leat agus ce chaoi bhfuil tu. Some people look at me like I’m an alien. My name is Irish and when asked I always say my original name. Liam Donall O’Raghallaigh. Most response is Liam O Reilly and I correct them with conviction and say it’s translated to Reilly in English NOT O Reilly
