What's the Craic? Craic is a beer community that champions independent Irish beer, and showcases the amazing talents of brewers all across the island of Ireland. We've been running a range of online and in-person events over the past few years, which have helped beer fans to connect with breweries, hear a bit about their story, and most importantly, taste some of their delicious brews.
We also have a social community platform where you can get involved in the beery chats, and keep up to date with events and general news from around the Irish beer scene.
The aim of the community is to provide a welcoming space where beer fans can chat, learn about beer, and connect with others. Join us to expand your beer knowledge, engage with our community of beer fans, and have a bit of craic while you’re at it!
The Craic Beer Community Podcast features a range of beery chats with guests from all around the Irish beer scene. We chat about everything from beer travel to homebrewing, and loads more in between.

Join us as we chat with John Allen, Wicklow Wolf’s head brewer, and analyse their Apex Oatmeal Stout in full detail.
If you’re not familiar with the Brewmaster Series, this is one for the homebrewers and the beer geeks! We invite a head brewer to fully break down the beer recipe of one of their signature brews, from start to finish. We provide a homebrew recipe too, so if you’re a homebrewer you can have a bash at brewing it yourself! This episode sees us analyse Wicklow Wolf’s Apex Oatmeal Stout in full detail, talking through everything from its water profile, grain bill, mash and hopping schedule, all the way through to fermentation and packaging.
This episode is slightly different to our previous podcast episodes, as it was recorded during a live online event that we hosted previously. We shared the recipe on screen as we chatted through it, so you may hear some references to that. Unfortunately we can’t do that on the podcast for obvious reasons, but the recipe is available to download here.

You can check out the Wicklow Wolf brewhouse as part of their brewery tour, and have a tasting of their beers in their taproom.
As always, a huge thanks to the brilliant Arms That Fit Like Legs for providing the theme music for the podcast! The track is "You Will Go On My First Whistle". Links:
