OUR STORY
A pioneer of the modern craft beer movement, famous for its innovation and quality, Galway Hooker has developed a reputation as one of Ireland’s leading breweries.
Galway Hooker is Ireland’s third-oldest independent brewery and the oldest existing brewery in Connacht. In 2014 the business expanded into a new state-of-the-art facility in Oranmore, making it one of Ireland’s largest and best-equipped craft breweries.
OUR BEER
Established in 2006, Galway Hooker produced the original Irish Pale Ale – now the most popular style of craft beer in the country. We also produce a diverse range of core and seasonal beers both on draught and in bottles.
We consider beer to be like any other food: the fresher and less processed the better.
Our beers are therefore devoid of any preservatives and are brewed using only malt, hops yeast and water.
SUSTAINABILITY
Galway Hooker’s Organic Pilsner embodies our commitment to innovative and daring brewing. Thoughtfully crafted using organic produce, this eco-friendly brew is a unique offering that sings with a distinctive flavour you’re sure to love.
What you’ll love even more is that it’s made completely without the use of pesticides. Plus, this brew allows people to give something back to the land through our partnership with the fantastic environmental charity Hometree as well as our proud membership of the incredible Irish Organic Association.
