A €24m investment on the Ring of Kerry, just outside Killarney, will be Ireland’s largest independent brewery, distillery and visitor centre and two flagship products have been launched to mark its arrival.

The 62,000 sq ft Killarney Brewing & Distilling on the N72 looks set to open later this summer.
