Diageo announced an additional €400 million investment in its newly‑opened Littleconnell brewery in County Kildare, bringing the company’s total capital spending to €1 billion for the 2020‑2029 period. The facility, which currently produces lagers and ales such as Hop House 13 and Smithwicks, will soon be expanded with a second plant dedicated to brewing Guinness and Guinness 0.0 for export markets, while the original St James’s Gate site will continue supplying Ireland, the UK and the United States. Colin O’Brien, head of global beer supply, said the new brewery will support Guinness’s strong performance worldwide despite a recent dip in North American sales, and will help mitigate tariff impacts. The expansion is part of Diageo’s broader turnaround plan that CEO Dave Lewis will unveil in August, underscoring the brand’s central role in the group’s future strategy.

"When waters stirred lay silent
Mistress let the mists descend
Thy tears cannot thaw Death's cold heart
His sombre gaze defies legend
More so than thine lest thy dew-lidded eyes
Art for the Banshee's song
Or our souls entwined like vein upon
The haunted shores of Avalon"

(CRADLE OF FILTH, "The haunted Shores of Avalon")
