Weirdo Guide to Dublin Pubs: The Gravediggers | WeirdBeerGirl.com

It had to be done. Although I'm a relatively short walk away, I rarely make it up to The Gravediggers (aka John Kavanagh's), but as it's That Time of Year, it seemed only right and proper. My more usual area haunts (I know) have a few things going for them: they are a bit more

Weirdo Guide to Dublin Pubs: The Botanic | WeirdBeerGirl.com

We're back to normal Weirdo Dublin Pubs service this week, and we're back in our normal Northside haunts (so seasonal!) with a new entrant to the field: The Botanic. Previously known as The Botanic House, this lovely early-20th-century pub had been dormant for some time, but it's now very much back open, and very much

Finally got this out the door...HOPS IN CAGES at The Brickyard for this week's Weirdo Dublin Pubs.

Weirdo Guide to Dublin Pubs: The Brickyard Gastropub | WeirdBeerGirl.com

This week in Weirdo Guide to Dublin Pubs, we're not just crossing the Liffey - we're going Far Away, to the suburbs (though still via public transit - we're not monsters here). While I had been told by many people that The Brickyard was a must-visit, not just for the beer selection but for the

Weirdo Guide to Dublin Pubs: The Old Spot | WeirdBeerGirl.com

I had every intention of writing something about the couple of new-to-me bars I had a chance to pop into in New York while I was over for work - Beer Run, for obvious running-nerd/beer-nerd reasons was a standout to me, and I was thrilled to have a few festibiers from around the region (I'm

Weirdo Guide to Dublin Pubs: The Porterhouse Temple Bar | WeirdBeerGirl.com

They don't have German beer on tap any more. While The Porterhouse has been serving its own beer in Temple Bar since 1996, it used to highlight more overseas craft and traditional beers as well; or, at least, that is how it seems to stick in everyone's memory - 'everyone' here being the group I

Weirdo Guide to Dublin Pubs: Piper’s Corner | WeirdBeerGirl.com

Piper's Corner is very much a trad bar, and while I end up there not so infrequently, I've oddly never been in when a session is on, despite being something of a folk music nerd. And while at some point I will have to remedy that, I enjoy the pub for a variety of other

Weirdo Guide to Dublin Pubs: The Palace Bar | WeirdBeerGirl.com

I know it's been a minute, but between offspring, work, Eurovision and work travel, I had a lot on, so going out anywhere in Dublin wasn't happening over the past few weeks, though going out in London for delicious cask mild and bitter was a nice bonus of the work travel. On a side note

Weirdo Guide to Dublin Pubs: The Stag’s Head | WeirdBeerGirl.com

Look! We've gone south of the river! It does sometimes happen, if the right opportunity presents itself. And so, to The Stag's Head. While I had been to the pub at some point in the dim and distant past, long before I moved here, it was very much as a tourist. And while it does

Weirdo Guide to Dublin Pubs: Kimchi Hophouse | WeirdBeerGirl.com

Is it a pub or a Korean restaurant? Why not both? Indeed, the Kimchi Hophouse is resolutely two things at the same time - a slightly scruffy, traditional Irish pub, and a thriving Korean restaurant, in one slightly-creaky building. The former Shakespeare Pub still bears its previous branding, with the small addition of a small
