1 A metal is a lattice of positive metal 'ions' in a 'sea' of delocalised electrons. 2  Metallic bonding refers to the interaction between the delocalised electrons and the metal nuclei. 3  The physical properties of metals are the result of the delocalisation of the electrons involved in metallic bonding. The physical properties of solid metals are: 2  conduct heat. 3  conduct electricity. 4  generally high melting and boiling points. 5  strong. 6  malleable (can be hammered or pressed out of shape without breaking). 7  ductile (able to be drawn into a wire). 8  metallic lustre. 9  opaque (reflect light).
However most Irish people would drink lagers, such as Carlsberg, Heineken, Budweiser, as well as less common european ones. Cider is a quite popular drink as well, particularily during summer, Bulmers would be the main brand drunk.
There are countless Irish jokes about excess alcohol consumption. It is a fixture of the pop culture lexicon. The legal drinking age in Ireland is 18 years old. It is illegal for those under the age of 18 years old to purchase alcohol, try to purchase it for youth, or to drink alcohol out in a public place. Minors that are in a residence can drink alcohol with the permission of an adult guardian within a residence.
