Default I need a real Irishman for a real Irish insult.
I'm brewing up a batch of stout and Irish red for the upcoming St Pats party season.

On my label I want to add a slogan like "Stout - because green beer is for wankers."

However, it occurred to me that "wanker" is more of an English insult rather than an Irish one.

Is there anyone out there from Ireland or having spent time there who can provide an appropriate Irish insult that fits into that same slogan?

Thanks in advance.

Lightweight. Never insult an irishman's drinking ability.

I may not be a real irishman but I did stay at a holiday inn express last night.
