Smithwick's Experience Kilkenny

Kilkenny, Republic of Ireland

Smithwick's Experience Kilkenny is a brewery-turned-brewery-tour located on the Medieval Mile in Kilkenny, Ireland. The Smithwick's Experience Kilkenny is the original site where Smithwick's was brewed from the 1700s until 2014. Previously, the site was owned by Franciscan monks who also brewed beer before they were dissolved during the Reformation in 1537. The site is now a brewery tour that includes tastings, visual effects including holograms, and a gift shop. The brewery tour is laid out over two floors and sits on the original abbey foundations.
