Galway loves gin

Thu, Apr 06, 2017

The craft beer revolution is in full swing and has well and truly whet consumers' appetites for higher quality beverages. The new thirst for premium alcoholic products has set the stage for the micro-distillers to start a revolution of their very own. Whiskey distilleries had begun to pop up across the country over the last few years. Since whiskey is required to be in a cask for three years to earn the Irish stamp of approval, many operators struggle to survive long enough to break even. Gin, however, does not suffer from the same limitations. The process of making gin is quicker than whiskey, no long ageing in barrels or intricate blending of different casks is required.

Brownes of Tuam

Thu, Mar 30, 2017

The hammer is coming down on pubs across the county. While licensed premises are being sold – the demand has nothing to do with their appeal as working pubs. Closed pubs are being purchased mostly for alternative uses as the supply of pubs in County Galway seems to be far exceeding demand. The trade hit a huge slump in recent times, contributed to by the practice of below cost selling of alcohol in supermarkets.

Now there is sustainability for fewer pubs in each of the major towns in the county with the rest barely struggling by as a result of this the downturn in the trade. We have all seen the closed up premises in towns in County Galway that will never pull a pint again. Pubs are now being bought for use by offices and legal firms which are selling on the valuable licenses. The trade has changed dramatically in recent years and the fact is that now there are too many pubs in County Galway and too few punters.
