I've seen the new Kilcock-brewed stout "in the wild".

Aye, if you're drinking the IPA and Red, they're both made in Kilcock also. Confirmed to me on Saturday.

Probably not through the supply chain to the taps yet. Just back from the Salmon Leap where they're on tap but I'll leave them for another while before I try them.

hi all - my first post and hopefully a helpful one - joined BEOIR earlier this year for same reasons as everyone else on here - anyway im very fortunate to have a motorhome and do alot of touring around Ireland - ive been trying out many of the beers from the list of breweries already mentioned. while in Westport in April this year I tried all three of WEST MAYO BREWERY beers - my favourite was a stout made with bog Myrtle which was just fabulous ( not sure when this brewery opened but there are bottles and draught readily available in Westport
btw I tried a very nice beer on tap in the sky and the ground in wexford town - it was from white gipsy and was called YALA something - they only served this by the glass but i pursuaded the nice lady to sell me a pint - anyone know the full name of this beer and whether its still available or was it a special ?
thanks , Damian

I don't think TBN's A-Z table was meant to replace the list we have here (if only because his chart doesn't have opening year) and we haven't updated our openings in a while, so here's the latest:

2006: Hooker
2007: White Gypsy
2008: Beoir Chorca Dhuibhne (West Kerry Brewery)
2009: Inishmacsaint, Galway Bay, Clanconnel*
2010: Dungarvan, Trouble
2011: Metalman, Eight Degrees, Dingle, Burren, Ards, Bo Bristle (as Breweyed)
2012: Kinnegar, Brown Paper Bag*, 5 Lamps, Elbow Lane*, Donegal, Rising Sons (as 7 Windows)*, Big Hand*, Carrig
2013: Mountain Man*, Black's, JW Sweetman, Baile*, Muckish*, Brú, Sheelin, Red Hand, Pokertree, Otter Bank*, Clear Sky*, Stone Barrel*, Rascal*, Cotton Ball, Farmageddon
2014: Independent, N17*, Jack Doyle's*, Mescan*, 9 White Deer*, Black Donkey*, Blackstairs*, Jack Cody's*, Kelly's Mountain Brew*, Rye River, St Mel's Brewing Company*, White Hag, 12th Abbey*

As far as I know, White Hag and Rye River are the only outfits with their own kit, but maybe someone cleverer than I can correct the asterisks if I got them wrong.

I'm pretty sure both Mescan and West Mayo brewery (2013) have their own kit
