Three pubs in Cork where to have a good beer

📌 Read in : Français (French)

Can you dissociate beer and Ireland? We can’t! It must be said that with whiskey, this “foam” is an institution in the country of Oscar Wilde. Beer is even the most popular alcoholic drink in Ireland, boasting 46% of the market share! What’s more, the country produces more than 760 million litres of it every year. You’ll never be thirsty, at least, especially if you visit Cork, the very academic city in the south of the country. We have selected three pubs for you – just make sure you don’t stumble!

Franciscan Well Brewery, for the purists

Built on the site of a monastery dating back to 1219, this brewery is a perfect mix of tradition and modernity. It offers a varied choice of lager, ale, and wheat beer but, above all, artisanal products without any preservatives, so there is sure to be something to satisfy your taste buds. All this with the possibility of guided tours to learn all about Irish beers. What more could you ask for?

Jim Cashman’s Pub, for brewing culture

A must-see pub in the heart of downtown, especially if you like to meet people! At Jim Cashman’s Pub, locals and tourists mingle in a joyful hubbub. Good beer, traditional food, football (or rugby) on TV, and live concerts… Isn’t life great?

Old Oak, for those on a budget

Well, we won’t say that beer in Cork costs the same as in Paris, but not all the pubs in the city are equal in this area. Here, we found you a really cheap establishment – just 4.5 euros a pint! This may explain why the Old Oak is one of the most frequented pubs, especially popular with students.
