Slieve Donard is by far my favourite NI hotel! Thanks for the heads up on #lisburnhour and for the fun on #foodNIhour each week too! Fingers crossed 🙂
I love Northern Ireland and I love Newcastle Would love to win this as I have always wanted to stay at Slieve Donard and what a treat at cider, beer, spirit and cheese festival
Thank you for the opportunity to win tickets to this event.
My husband is a drinks connoisseur, having worked in the industry for over 30 years, it would be a lovely treat to take him to this event. Also he could be an exhibitor next year as he is about to launch a Gin into the marketplace x
Wonderful combination – cider, beer, spirit and cheese, never mind the superb venue! What’s not to like!! Dreaming already!
So many fabulous new beers, ciders and spirits in NI of late and I would so love to try some of them. What better way than at this great event.
I’d love these tickets my partner has been making his own cider from the apple trees in the garden . He would love to try out what Northern Irelands other brewers have been producing . Northern Irelands food and drinks have come on in leaps and bounds in the past few years .
