Supporting craft breweries

randomname2005

Wanted to start a thread with a list of Irish craft breweries selling online so we can support them as much as possible during the crisis- it would be a shame to see any of them close. (Yes I know directly supporting them will impact sales in shops and off licenses but shops have other items to make a profit from so they can stay afloat and those of us in rural places don't always have a local off license to support).

So far I have seen white hag and kingarven selling online but would be interested in seeing what others have found.

Edit - ideally independent which I believe the two above still are

Can I ask a stupid question in relation to the mini kegs. Do you need anything further to get the beer out of the mini keg? Tap or anything else?

I was wondering that myself. From the photos you’d think you need your own tap. Has put me off ordering a few times.

Yeah went on myself for a look earlier. Only Harris available.

I really can't stomach the Harris either... hopefully they can restock soon

Whereas in Ireland, ads have to pretend that drinking beer isn't sexy! :P

I’d have the Shannon River over any but Im fairly fond of the Harris too. Just so long as I never taste Embrace again.

Do White Hag only offer 2 mini kegs per order?

Online, yes.. probably to subsidize delivery costs

But they have been sending kegs out to off licenses too.

Shannon River is one of the nicest IPAs going. Never tried the "Embrace", was that a one-off to coincide with Limericks rebranding?

Can I just say how much I love Craft Central?

Ordered Wednesday night, thinking I'd left it too late for the bank holiday weekend, but lo and behold, it arrived this morning. Nice mix of Kinnegar, 8 degrees and Galway Bay Brewery to keep me going in these trying times.

I also suggest ordering in quantities of 24 so as not to waste packaging :pac:

Rascals in inchicore do mini kegs along with tins if anyone is looking for something along those lines.

I don’t think they deliver the kegs though.

Whiplash order arrived looking bedraggled. One can burst and leaked over the two slabs. First damage at all and it came from the "professional' UPS!

Roughly where do you live? They do say on their website that some DPD depots are having issues and can't guarantee a delivery date for those. They've always been next day for me.

There was 20 in stock when I ordered earlier...Have you ordered from them before? How long does it normally take?

Ordered TRIPA pack, a stein and face mask from The White Hag late on Wednesday evening and arrived before midday today.

Good stuff from them!

Think I had a mixed case before in about 4 days but that was when things were mental at the start of the lockdown.

Are those tiddies on the stout bottle?

Hopefully they’ll release another few over the next while, I’d like to taste the New England.

Doesn't seem to be an option, it appears to be delivery only.

Was Kildare's "turn" in my unwritten rota but they only have the lager in stock on their site currently; so Larkins and Kinnegar via Beercloud it is

Local shop must be wondering why their sales of GBB/O'Haras/McGargles/Rascals are way down :pac:

FYI for anyone around Sligo - Walker 1781 are doing growler’s of Kinnegar, White Hag and Lough Gill..

I had an issue with UPS delivering my Whiplash order. I emailed the guys in the brewery and their response was nothing short of exceptional. I won't go in to details, but suffice to say they take customer care very seriously and they're now my regular payday treat to myself. Helps that their brew is lovely

For clarification, problem was entirely with UPS
