‘Bargain’ wine on sale for less than €7.50 is set to be banned under a new law outlawing cheap alcohol.
The cost of certain cans of beer and cider will also soar, even doubling in some cases.

A survey carried out by the Irish Independent found that the law will mostly affect cheaper brands.

The aim of the measure is to target binge drinking.
Health Minister Simon Harris told the Seanad: “Price matters. If it goes up, harm goes down.”
