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

That’s mad, more bright than dark. In fairness though, I would’ve been happy with that too.

I'm extremely happy given it was a coin toss as to which to buy. Tbh it looks like there was neither a dark or a bright box and just a 'box', probably still would have bought it.

Rascals doing a box now for Feb, small lily o'briens box and 8 cans, (2×4) and they want 30quid. Could buy the same in the shop outside their brewery for 26euro. Never any good value from them

I'm way more looking forward to this than I was during the week. Will they even mention it? If the chat function is on, I'm going all in on asking Joe a few questions - "Question for Joe, does he believe that Donald Trump was sent by God to break up a globalist conspiracy ring and if so, could he give his thoughts on whether he succeeded or not?"

Or, “Can you recommend somewhere to get pizza in Washington DC?l

My bright box arrived this morning. 28 beers:
18 cans of the core range 330ml cans(Little Fawn, Atlantean, Phantom, Irish IPA, 9th Wave), 2 Roc Helles 440ml, 2 each of the most recent smash series 440ml, 2 Malafemmena 330ml, 2 Dough Brews IPA 330ml
No bingo card but don't think I can attend it tonight anyway. Overall fairly happy with the selection and good value

9 Stouts! Ha that'll p1ss a lot of people off. It wouldn't have really bothered me as I liked them but the phrase "bright box may included stouts" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

One of the lads got his box there. I'll be avoiding naturally due to dry Jan.

The bingo cards are digital and just sent out via email. Easier than trying to verify physical ones on a Zoom having already done a bingo session for another (non-booze) group so its understandable.

There's people on Twitter who got sent a primarily IPA box for the dark one.

I got a good mix, was undecided on a dark or bright but seems I got a 50/50 mix. Suits me tbh

Well the more amusing part of this all is how someone with a thriving business living in one of the top 5 places to live on the planet according to international wellness and happyness indexes . With access to free healthcare and ability to have a verbal voice without going to prison for saying things against the government. Feels like they are oppressed or there freedom is being stolen.

The levels of cognitive dissonance to your current situation and surroundings must be something behold.

Having it all and still having an entirely negative view of your fellow man. Would ye ever get up the fk as they say. Absolutely clueless when you have it so good.

I often wonder how these exact people would get on under say russian rule or maybe a Turkish coup or even in Thailand where you seen vast prison time for openly slagging their king.

Ireland's not without its issues , no where is. But cop the fk on like.

This is what is concerning. Not calling someone out on this **** or politely ignoring it is as good as encouragement.

It's a calculated risk, I guess. As is their response.

Wouldn't like to see a whole brewery go out of business and job losses because of the views of a single person involved.

Most of their customers will never find out about it. People on the internet still ask "what's up with Founders?" when that situation has been going on years, the details are well publicised, and seems to be much worse than one team member with unpalatable views.

Brock Turnpike

Only catching up on all this. Atlantean is one of, if not, my favourite craft beer.

I'm hoping that statement from WH is a holding statement of some sort while they get things sorted in the background. As others have said, simply describing it as an "employee" is very weak, if not outright misleading.

Wouldn't like to see a whole brewery go out of business and job losses because of the views of a single person involved.

I suspect Joe won't be there, somehow.
Expect plenty of forced joviality, I'd say.
Be brave to keep comments open.

Is it open or do you need an invitation?
I'm curious now!
