“It’s sad to see what’s happening with the pubs throughout rural Ireland. It’s the way of life gone, you know?”
The closure of the Ramble Inn in Halfway, Ballinhassig (a pub with over 300 years of history) is a reminder of just how valuable local pubs are in our local communities, and the support needed to keep going.

So effective that banning happy hours, making off licences close at 10pm, banning multibuy discounts, segregating alcohol from other groceries, banning loyalty points on alcohol and introducing minimum unit pricing hasn't made problem drinking go away. Better do some more, so.
Good to see that the new gov has committed to ‘Continue to tackle harmful alcohol consumption through effective regulations’. The most effective regs are controls on price, marketing and availability.

Bottles sorted for the @CarlowHomebrew meet-up @TullysBarCarlow tomorrow night. I'm not pretending they're well brewed, but at least its a little bit of our lost beer history (sort of) recreated ...

Everybody is saying Portal this and Portal that. But no one is saying Afterwork Pints this and Flagon of Cider that.

Anyone around #Kilkenny this weekend? We'll be pouring some beers at the annual @SullivansBrewCo beer festival Friday and Saturday. Glad we gave the bar it's 2024 coat of paint

Our Endurance dark mild is now tapped up and serving at PJ Kavanagh's in Portlaoise. Malty, roasty and tasting delicious!

"Go out and have a meal. Have something to drink — it doesn’t have to be alcoholic — with your friends and family.” Great reminder from @Beervana to give your local pubs some love this #DryJanuary! #Cheers 🍻forbes.com/sites/dontse/2024…

🍺 January is always a quiet time for the on-trade, and unfortunately, in recent years, this has been exacerbated by charity ‘challenges’ that involve abstaining from alcohol for the month.

Here's something you didn't think you'd see again.
Ali McLoughlin back behind the bar at 37 O'Connell Street and look how happy she looks.
Before becoming Tully's Bar in 2015, the bar was called McLoughlins since 1887, run by Ali & her father before her.
Some great memories. – at Waterford, Ireland

Our latest beer is a dark mild, named after our near neighbour, Ernest Shackleton's, famous ship. We're launching it in Judith O'Brien's in Athy, right next to the Shackleton museum, this Friday evening from 8pm. Hope to see you there.
