☀️ We wouldn’t dream of complaining about the weather… especially when Ireland is finally getting a proper summer!

If you’re looking to soak up every bit of sunshine, our b**r garden is waiting for you.

If you’d rather cool off with a ice cool pint, the air conditioning is on and the bar is sitting at a lovely 22°C.

Whichever way you want to enjoy the heat, we’ve got you covered.

🍺 Two weeks later… and we can safely say the upgrade was worth every bit of the madness.

We’re a family-run pub and have been behind the counter here for a long time now. We care about the place, we care about the atmosphere, and we care about the quality of what’s going across the bar.

At the time it probably looked like we’d completely lost the run of ourselves… but we were determined to do it properly and not cut corners.

That’s what this whole job was really about.

Better pints

And honestly, the difference since the upgrade has been unreal.

❄️ Colder b**r
🍺 Cleaner pours
👌 Better consistency
📉 Minimal wastage

The new setup also looks seriously slick behind the bar - and quietly sips electricity instead of hammering it!

Most importantly though… the b**r is absolutely CRISP🍻

Our two newest arrivals are already settling in nicely

🍺 Beamish
🍏 Orchard Thieves

Alongside the rest of the lineup:
Guinness • Guinness 0.0 • Smithwicks • Rockshore L***r • Rockshore C***r • Harp • Carlsberg • Poretti • Heineken • Heineken 0.0 • Coors • Moretti • Kinnegar Scraggy Bay IPA • Weihenstephan Helles L***r

Same Beár An Ráille.
Just an even better pint 🍺

🚨 UPDATE FROM BEÁR AN RÁILLE 🚨

The lads have been flat out since early this morning working on our brand new refrigeration and draught system upgrade 🍺❄️

Unfortunately, one major component that was due to arrive this morning has been delayed until later today. Because of this, the new system won’t have enough time to be fully installed, pressure tested and properly chilled down in time for opening tonight.

We’re committed to doing this properly and to the highest standard.

As a result, Beár An Ráille will remain CLOSED today, Thursday 7th May.

Everything should be good to go for tomorrow, Friday, from 2PM

Thanks again to everyone for the patience, support and understanding over the last couple of days. We can’t wait to show off the new setup and get the first fresh ice-cold pints flowing 😎🍺
