Established in 2015, shortly after the country was dragging itself out of one of the most catastrophic recessions in history, Hope seemed like a more than apt name choice. Before the name, the idea of opening a brewery was had by a couple of friends over a couple of beers (hardly surprising). Today, Hope now produce a core range of five distinct beer styles available all year round as well as two seasonal specials and a wide range of limited-edition beers, each with its own distinct name, story and taste experience. All Hope beers are brewed, bottled, canned and kegged at the brewery on Kilbarrack Road at Howth Junction, Dublin, the only micro-brewery in Fingal.
