Welcome to the Crafty Tours Dublin blog!

If you’ve ever walked through Temple Bar and thought there must be more to Irish beer than the famous black stuff, you’re in the right place. While we’ll always have a soft spot for the classics, Dublin is currently in the middle of a brewing renaissance—and we have the inside track.

I spend my weeks exploring the city's vibrant hospitality scene, scouting out the freshest taps, the most innovative microbreweries, and the hidden back-street taprooms that most tourists walk right past. This blog is where I’ll be sharing those finds with you.

What can you expect here?

• The Best Local Pours: Deep dives into the IPAs, Red Ales, and Sours making waves in Dublin.
• Brewery Spotlights: Meeting the people behind the tanks at our favorite independent spots.
• A Local’s Guide: Tips on where to eat, what to drink, and how to navigate Dublin like a regular.

Whether you’re a seasoned "hop-head" or someone just looking for a better pint, I’m thrilled to have you along for the walk. Dublin’s craft beer story is best told one sip at a time—so let’s get started.
