The Academy

Working with experts and specialists in both global and local brands, Irish Pub Academy host interactive and bespoke learning experiences that focus on the history, culture and heritage of the Irish pub both in Ireland and worldwide. We collaborate with breweries, distilleries and famous pubs to offer the complete Irish pub experience including master classes, tutorials, food and drink tastings. 

This guided experience tells the intriguing story of the Irish pub from ancient times to the present day in an informative and highly entertaining way. From within a private pub setting, our guides describe all the major developments in the history of the Irish pub and reveal many interesting facts about this great national institution in the context of Irish life and culture. Learn of Irelands most famous beers and enjoy a tasting experience with samples of ale, stout and lager. At the end of the experience, you'll receive a unique and personalised certificate from the Irish Pub Academy.
