Went to Pete and Elda's in Belmar or Wall (on 35) for lunch today and had for the first time a pint of Smithwick's Irish Ale. Have to say it was DEEELISH!! I went and bought a 12 pak this evening, the price was nice at 13.99 considering it was 4 bucks for the pintAnyone else ever tried it?

I went to school in Ireland - usually drank Guinness, but liked Smithwick.  If I remember right, the irish call it "Smiddick".

You are the scud missile of insults sometimes....fire one randomly out the back of '72 Buick, then go home & turn on CNN to see where it lands. (SK '91)

I picked up a six-pack last week.  The lady said I was the first customer to ever say the name right.  Thanks, fellas!
