WATCH: Her and JOE Go Craft Beer Tasting

Over the past couple of years we've become more and more adventurous in our choice of tipple, with an explosion of new breweries in Ireland providing greater choice and better quality beer and cider. Everyone who's anyone is sampling and enjoying the stuff. 

Ahead of this weekend's beer-tasting extravanganza at the Killarney Beerfest we headed along to Dublin Headline's Bar to taste six Irish craft beers.

Reuben Gray, chairman of Beoir, put our own Marie and JOE's Eric Lalor through their paces. You can check out how they got on in the video below.

If you're heading to Killarnery this weekend, sit back and sip stout with live entertainment from Picture House, Jerry Fish and The Swing Cats, and stroll through the artisan food village with your fork to taste the best of authentic artisan food.

Beoir Ireland will also debut a new awards programme with over eight categories including Pale Ale, Dark Ale, Wheat Beer, Sour Beer and more, and a Beoir Champion Beer of Ireland will be crowned in Killarney this weekend.
