A number of questions were placed on the Amárach omnibus in
February, developed with Drinks Industry Ireland.
A total sample of 1,001 was achieved with quotas set on gender,
age, social class and region to achieve a sample aligned with
national population. Over 80% of Irish adults use the internet,
so the Amárach Research omnibus is completed fully online.
Alcohol related questions were only asked of over 18s (n=994).
Interviewing fieldwork dates were 11th – 18th February 2014
