Just spent a very enjoyable 1.5 hours in rye river brewing co. Simon the host for the tour is one of the nicest people you’ll meet and is very passionate and knowledgeable about the company and the beer. If you have any interest in beer I would highly recommend a tour. I can’t praise Simon enough. He made the tour extremely enjoyable.

Alison & Brian – Saturday 3rd August 2019 Carlingford Brewery, The Old Mill Back in early 2018 my sister tagged me in a post on Twitter from Lovin Dublin that said, “You can now get married in a rustic brewery on the Cooley Peninsula and it’s SO FAB” and at this point we hadn’t visited one wedding venue, The Old Mill was the first on our hit list. We made a viewing appointment with Des and set out on the road to Carlingford. Everything about The Old Mill is magical, from the moment you arrive you get a sense of being somewhere very special, soaked in history and completely unique. All it took was that one visit and we had fallen in love. We knew instantly this is where we wanted to celebrate our marriage. If, like us, you are not a fan of lavish, OTT and lots of white wedding venues then you will love the warm and rustic décor of the Old Mill. The location is private, and the land is just stunning, especially when the sun is shining. Words cannot describe the fantastic team who run The Old Mill, but we will try because it is the least we can do to thank them for everything. Des (Owner of Carlingford Brewing Company) is passionate, energetic and a complete joy to be around. Dearbhaile, wedding co-ordinator extraordinaire, is everything a laid-back bride and groom need in their lives, trust me she is just wonderful. The rest of the team at The Old Mill could not do enough for us on the day, I never, not once, saw the bottom of an empty glass of wine in my hand. The Old Mill was everything we hoped for and more, I wouldn’t change a thing.

Ballykeefe is situated in the heartland of Ireland, adjacent to its medieval capital, Kilkenny city. It is steeped in a historic heritage and tradition, holding the unique distinction of being the birthplace of Irish Whiskey.

The word “whiskey” is an Anglicisation of the Gaelic phrase, uisce beatha, meaning “water of life”. At Ballykeefe we are now bringing a truly special “water of life” from centuries past to a new generation for their pleasure and good health. The tour; You will see up close every step in the process and also enjoy and have explained the many different aromas and smells at each stage of the brewing and distilling process. Many secrets will be revealed by our award winning Master Distiller . How he makes the “cut” to create the ''Spirit of Kilkenny''
Fantastic tour, top notch facility, fabulous people producing wonderful products! We went on numerous distillery tours during our Ireland vacation with Ballykeefe by far the best! Morgan, Jaime, Carmel, and Sarah were so down to earth and answered all of our questions. They were great with the younger kids they even enjoyed the tour too! If you travel to Ireland don’t miss Ballykeefe! I can’t wait til their products are available here in the States especially the gin! ????????????

Incredible experience, the tour guide Adam made the whole tour very easy going, easy to ask questions and gave a very detailed description of every aspect of the distilling process. The whole atmosphere is amazing! The ideal day is to arrive, have lunch in Brownes bar and make your way over to do the distillery tour.

Located in Dublin’s historic Liberties, Pearse Lyons Distillery, Dublin’s only boutique distillery, is a five-minute walk from The Guinness Storehouse. Nestled in the former Church of St. James, this distillery has a colourful history dating back to the 12 Century. On tour of the distillery and surrounding graveyard, guests are introduced to the compelling characters from Dublin’s famous distilling and brewing district. This district, rich in culture and tradition, was once a place of booming industry known as The Golden Triangle. The Pearse Lyons Distillery produces some of Ireland’s finest small batch Irish whiskies and celebrates the Irish tradition of storytelling on each guided tour. Guests enjoy a sensory experience as they are brought through the distilling process, before enjoying whiskey and gin tastings at our tasting bar. All booklets, interactives and welcome video are translated in seven languages (English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Chinese and Portuguese)
Surprisingly this must see attraction isn't included on the Dublin Pass list. Like other reviewers we received free entry after purchasing a ticket upgrade for one of the bus tours. The staff were, in our case Emma and David, were both extremely enthusiastic in sharing their in-depth knowledge of the business and brand. The standard of renovation to the church is stunning and seeing two copper stills where the altar would normally be is pretty quirky to say the least! At the end of the tour/tasting the tea rooms are just as impressive with more friendly service and tasty cakes. Overall a fantastic visit offering a far more interesting experience than some of the better known brands.

My Wife and family visited for some lunch and a tour. The bar itself is really special with attentive staff and a good varied menu, not to forget the beers on offer! I dont want to ruin the tour by telling too much, but I will tell you this much. Our outstanding guide, Dave started our tour and it was clear it is a small setup- dont let that put you off! There is an amazing story behind this brewery and the staff that run it. The staff have got huge influence on what is brewed and actually get the opportunity to taste and grade every Sunday! Thankyou Dave for a superb tour and thankyou for the generous and mighty samples we enjoyed! A wonderful visit all round. Highly recommended.

Such a wonderful experience from start to finish. We were collected from our hotel in a lovely bus and brought us to the gin school. We got a lovely welcome and a G&T, then had a tour of the factory and got lots of fun facts about gin making at Listoke. Then we got down to making our own and it was a great laugh. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the gin was flowing throughout the experience with some lovely nibbles too. We got to make a full bottle each and it was juat so much fun. Would highly recommend it!! We might even go back again.
