Founded in 1996 on our picturesque fifth-generation family farm nestled in the awe-inspiring Mourne Mountains of Northern Ireland, Whitewater Brewery began with a dream—to craft beers bursting with distinctive flavours, inspired by our heritage and natural surroundings.

Over the decades, our passion and commitment have earned us numerous accolades, elevating Whitewater to international acclaim. But above all, we remain driven by our core mission:

“Our aim has, and always will be, to brew exciting, great-tasting beers that delight and inspire.”

We began with modest ambitions, operating an 800-litre brewing system, meticulously crafting each batch by hand. Today, we proudly operate a state-of-the-art 6500-litre microbrewery, offering fifteen distinct and award-winning beers, each handcrafted and bottled onsite.

In 2016, after 20 years of dedication, innovation, and growth, we took a monumental step forward, receiving planning permission to establish our brand-new brewery facility. This milestone marked a fresh chapter in our ongoing journey, allowing us not only to increase production but to offer immersive brewery tours, engaging tastings, and unique community events.

Sustainability and locality form the heart of our brewing philosophy. We collaborate closely with local farmers and suppliers, sourcing only the highest quality ingredients, embedding true Irish character in every bottle.

The future promises to be just as exciting, filled with new flavours, innovative recipes, and remarkable experiences. Join us as we continue to write our story. Grab a Whitewater beer and taste the passion and craftsmanship in every sip.
