Our newly planted Chinook hops are looking great for a first year plant. I wasn't expecting to have to string them this year, but the combination of heat and rain is really driving them on.

Calling all chefs and cafe businesses in the region. Midlands Ireland have published a food directory of food and drink suppliers. 1 in 5 are organic and the farm to fork journey would be local. A great example of businesses supporting each other.

The East door into the brewery yard this afternoon. Northerly or southerly winds are good, because they both mean that the Griffin windvane faces the right way for photographs.
