New Craft Beer Bar in Wexford

Hi guys.

The Sky and the Ground has been in Wexford for 15 or so years. They always had a steady supply of non Diageo beers like Erdinger, Fischers, Pilsner Urquell and a few others on draught. Recentley they began getting in Metalman on draught as well as a few other things like BrewDog, the odd O'Haras, some Franciscan Well in bottles.

Well the restaraunt one floor above has unfortunately closed(It was lovely), but fortunately they are in the process of turning it into a Craft Beer Bar. From what I can gather it'll be mainly bottles (due to lack of cold room space) with a small variety of draught.

They hope to be open before Christmas but I'll update on a definite date.

BTW I just happen to be friends with the family who own it in case your wondering how I know this.

We can only hope so.

Also another decent offy just opened on the main street where the pet shop used to be.

Excellent, Sky has been my choice of venue in Wexford the odd time I'm in there for the reasons you stated.


Great to see it taking the next step!

Had spotted that offy a few weeks back, before it opened, but wasnt sure what it was to be, it was the bottle display that caught my eye through the dirty window.

Looking like a good Christmas in Wexford  ;D

That wouldn't surprise me. One of the guys in there knows his beers. Maybe he is on here.....?

You lads are determined to get us down to Wexford. That makes me suspicious  :o

This is opening on Friday 30th Nov. Pop down if your around this neck of the woods.

I've managed to get one of my cornies on tap for it too. (YAY!!).
