Craft beer in Westport? 13 years 9 months ago #1

Hi, new to the site. Have been lucky enough to get away to Westport on several occasions so far this summer, but have been very disappointed to find that there seems to be no craft beer available in any of the pubs i have visited. Heading back down for the weekend soon, anyone able to point me in the right direction? Thanks

The knockranny hotel, is the only place I've ever found any in Westport. It's a shame because the local business's are really pushing Westport as a tourist hotspot.

thanks for that, its a great shame as there are lots of great pubs in westport. i had noticed that supervalue and one centra shop that I went into had a nod in the direction of some decent beer, stocking some O'haras, Dungarvan and a handful of the better known english ales, but its not the same as having availability in the pub. I wonder if the breweries have approached any of the Westport pubs about stocking something decent. next time i am down i will engage any publicans and barmen i encounter with my usual conversation questionning why they have such a limited selection of beer. Westport is a fabulous town with a fine array of good restaurants and artisan food producers meeting an obvious demand from locals and visitors alike. I have no doubt that decent beer would be very welcome there too.
