Whilst others might forget about New Year’s Resolutions by mid-March, not us. We take them super duper seriously. Planning for them even begins in December we’re kinda embarrassed to admit. But first of all, it was a hectic 2016 and a big fat thank you goes out to all the family and friends who spent […] |

Whilst we could write a treatise on alcohol laws in Ireland, we’ll keep this short to keep it (somewhat) coherent. It’s already acknowledged in Irish law that breweries can sell direct to the public. But the legislation is so old it badly needs to be reviewed. The law as it currently stands states that breweries […] |

Finally! We’ve been on a mission for the best part of a year now trying to brew Ireland’s first organic beer. It’s something that’s close to our hearts and one that has been gnawing at us since we began. |

And people such […] |

We usually don’t need much of an excuse to get out, so it didn’t take much convincing for us to take off down to Greystones in Wicklow for a photoshoot to launch the Cork Kerry Food Forum. |

Organised chaos. Or chaotically organised. Take your pick. In the midst of phone calls to a hop supplier, you could be simultaneously checking on the mash temperature, updating the brew sheet, pointing frantically at the stack of boxes that are meant to be moved and nodding emphatically at some question you couldn’t make out but […] |
Here’s Cara, keeping a wise eye on things in the brewery. She’s great – guard dog, counsellor, fitness guru, helper and all round fetcher of things (both wanted and unwanted…) and been with us since the start. Send us your best dog pic and we’ll send the winner a case of beer. And yes, the […] |

At Munster Brewery, we don’t believe in filtering our beer using artificial filters. We keep everything as natural as possible, brewing the way nature intended. Filters can strip flavour and aroma from the beer and why interfere with what nature will produce best anyway! Giving the beer time to condition and mature is the best […] |
