First the rugby, now this.
Ireland is going from strength to strength at the moment, and there’s nothing we’re happier to be proud of than our beer.
Summer Saison, a beer by the Franciscan Well Brewery in Co. Cork, has been awarded the highest possible honour at this weekend’s World Beer Awards.

A blind taste test was done by a panel of brewers, reps and beer connoisseurs – and they came to the conclusion that the Rebel County is home to the world’s finest pale ale.
Humbled after the @worldbeerawards declared our Summer Saison as Best Pale Ale in the world! Also 2 gold, 1 silver, and 3 bronze medals!

We wonder what they drank to celebrate.
