Our Meet the Makers is a VIP Experience, a must for those interested in the arts of smoking and brewing.

Our hands on owner and founder Birgitta, will bring you to a behind-the-scenes visit of the Smokehouse itself where you will have the opportunity to learn:

✨ How we smoke our Irish Organic and Wild Salmon
✨ Look into our bespoke kiln and the smoke box
✨ Peter will tell you the fascinating story of how he captured the wild yeast in the Burren for the ‘Euphoria’ gruit beer
✨ A Burren Smoked Irish Organic Salmon tasting platter is served with a tasting of three of the Burren Brewery unique craft beers

This is an exclusive opportunity to immerse yourself into the heart of the story of the artisan Burren Smokehouse by meeting the founders. See with your own eyes how every piece of salmon that leaves the Smokehouse has had personal care applied to it.
