Are Blacks the best brewery in Ireland at the mo?

[delzep]

Had four of their beers over the past few days (KPA, BIPA, Beoir #1 and their 3.5% beer)...all superb. Get a good stout going and they'll make a fortune

[ferg]

Havn't put a foot wrong yet it seems!! Can't wait to try the Beoir beer...

I wonder will there ever be an opportunity to go make NHC#1??? 

[Will_D]

Well seeing as our very own North County brewer Nigel_C, aka. "Nigel the Recipe" supplied the recipe to Sam maybe we have done already 

[Qs]

Definitely one of them anyway. They're making some very tastey beer. Love the Beoir and BIPA.

[johnrm]

Tried the 4 in the op, great beers IMO.

[Dodge]

Answer to question! No ;

It's Dodges brewery!

Ha ha ha ( evil laugh )


Blacks beers are good though

Is the session one using the 2nd runnings from Beoir#1?

No. The second runnings somehow managed to go missing along with all Sam's empty corny kegs.

theres someting there ok Dodge...
Some day when the commercials are confident enough, therll be a brew off between craft commercials and home breweries although I presume it could be bad for business if the results were public

[nigel_c]

It all went to good homes.

[DEMPSEY]

Now Brenmurph that idea of a brew off between the commercials and homebrewers is a no win for the commercials as I believe the homebrewers would blow them out of the water.

[Damien M]

Commercials brew for all of their customers tastes! Homebrewers brew for a personal taste or experimentation. It is an unfair comparison that is not on an equal footing! 

There are good and bad examples in everything.

The BIPA is by a long way my favourite beer from Ireland, and maybe even the world.
