Local producers will display goods at Irish Craft Beer & Food Market

Artisan food and drink producers will promote their wares at a five-day St Patrick’s event in the Irish Craft Beer & Food Market in Dublin’s Docklands next week.

From next Thursday, more than 50 local craft beer, cider and Irish whiskey producers will participate, along with the Irish artisan food producers, including chocolatiers, fudge makers, and makers of fresh Irish cheeses and pies. Guests can also visit an outdoor barbecue.

“The festival is uniquely positioned to capitalise on the upward curve happening in the craft beer, cider and whiskey industry in Ireland,” said Seamus O’Hara, owner of Carlow Brewing Company and market co-founder.
