Brewery Tour & Taproom Tasting Experiences
EVERY FRIDAY & SATURDAY
Step inside The White Hag and experience a true behind-the-scenes journey from grain to glass. Our brewery tour brings you through the heart of the brewhouse, where you’ll see how our beers are mashed, fermented, conditioned, and packaged on our canning line for distribution across Ireland and beyond.
Along the way, you’ll discover the ingredients, techniques, and creativity that define our beers, before finishing in Barrel House with a guided tasting of three of our freshest brews. Led by our team, the tasting explores flavour, aroma, and mouthfeel, while sharing the stories and folklore behind each beer.
