8 stops for great beer around Dublin


We're big fans of craft beer at Trekr, which is why one of our first completed tours is a craft beer tour. This first one is around Dublin and we'll be adding more to this.

Any hard working developer has to relax over a good pint at the end of a hard day, but perhaps there are others that we've missed. We're always looking for ideas...

See the tour at our site:  http://trekr.io/tours/10-the-demon-drink-crafty-beer-tour.htm

"Like the eternal struggle of good versus evil, Ireland’s craft beer development will eternally struggle against the traditionalist argument that Guinness is the only stout in the world, that freezing cold cans of foreign sounding pilsner from your nearest petrol station is fancy beer, and that deliciously tasty craft beer is the drink of the devil himself. If however Satan is a demon with sophisticated tastes, then this last point may indeed be true. He is afterall not a huge fan of low temperatures so may not enjoy the freezing cold cans. Nonetheless, against all this pressure of convention, Dublin’s beery landscape has undergone a huge transformation over the last number of years where it’s likely now that you will find at least something that will tickle your fancy in most pubs and bars. It is worth noting however that some of these are the equivalent of the vegetarian option at a carvery, but hey, they’re trying, and we’re not here to talk about carvery dinners, are we? That’s over in the carvery dinner tour, obviously.
So what does Dublin have to offer, and what are we visiting today? Well, these are pretty much all pubs with the exception of one on-licence and a quick pop into an off-licence also, just because it’s on the way. The industry is still very much in it’s infancy in this country, so craft brewery tours are not yet commonplace..." [Full tour at Trekr.io]
