Yes it is. However an Irish spirit measure is much bigger than an English
one. For the same price!

Sorry to be the rudest wench in the 21st Century. Top posters are wankers.

wank·er ( P ) Pronunciation Key (wngkr)
n. Chiefly British Vulgar Slang
A person who masturbates.
A detestable person

Choices, choices.

I have never seen an Irish female take beer with ice, they must go to
Cleveland to do it I suppose.

FYI, I assume those figures represent the current tax levels, but
tomorrow (1.3.) the Finnish alcohol tax will be lowered. This has
resulted that recently the retailers haven't bothered to resupply
alcohol products as they have been waiting the lower prices. See

more information on this phenomenon.
