This is something that we've been talking about for a while and which came up at the AGM last year: a portable document which has names and contact details for Irish craft breweries which people can bring to the pubs and off licences they frequent and give to the management.
So here[/url:3iufu2d8] is the second draft of it, with a big thanks to Will who did the first draft which I've been working from.
I've squeezed it onto two pages so it can be printed double-sided on a single sheet. As a Beoir publication it has to be neutral and comprehensive, but it's also editable so you can change it about, delete bits and add notes, depending on what suits your locality and preferences.
I've deliberately left out the breweries that (I think) only supply to their own tied houses: Burren, Galway Bay, and Messrs Maguire. I've also left off the very new breweries who aren't out and about yet like Kinnegar and Elbow Lane. Not sure if Inishmacsaint and/or Ards should be left off too.
Where there's a distributor involved I've tried to include those details. I'm not 100% sure that Hooch distribute Whitewater: if anyone in the trade can confirm or correct that I'd appreciate it.
Edit: Whitewater now signed with Noreast for distribution.
In fact, any updates or corrections are welcome as it will need to be kept updated.
