Founded in 2016 Lough Gill Brewery restored the lost tradition of brewing in Sligo town that once hosted 5 breweries. They are an Independent Family Run Craft Brewery situated in Sligo close to the shores of Lough Gill on Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way. They are a passionate team which takes pride in each beer that they brew.

Their beer philosophy is to brew the best hand-crafted beers using the best ingredients and where possible to add some local indigenous ingredients to the brews. They have done many collaborations with breweries here in Ireland, the UK and the USA and have enjoyed working with their peers on some fantastic beers.

Lough Gill brewery has earned international recognition for their exceptional taste and quality. They keep their customers on their toes with bold and adventurous new flavours.
