Sullivan’s Taproom is a heritage brewing company rooted in the traditions of two Irish family brewing dynasties, Sullivan’s and Smithwick’s, building on a 300 year old brewing tradition in Kilkenny City. .

The beer served at Sullivan’s Taproom has won the ‘Best Ale in the World’ champion trophy at Burton-on-Trent’s Oscars of the Beer Industry. Sullivan’s is the first Irish brewery to win the award since its origins in 1886. Ian Hamilton is one of the few select Master Brewers recognised globally in the craft beer arena, with over 30 years of experience.

In Kilkenny, the doors to Sullivan’s Taproom are open all year round. Here, guests can savour a Sullivan’s craft beer in the courtyard and couple it with a delicious pizza, from the wood fired oven, or one of the other mouth watering bites from their menu.

Sullivan’s Taproom has long term distribution partnerships with companies that pride themselves on being purveyors of premium quality beers in the respective markets across Ireland, Britain and the Great Lakes region of the US.
