Ours to Protect- Radio Kerry with Sari Houlihan

By April 2, 2024October 20th, 2024No Comments

Thanks to Sari for giving us an opportunity to share the sustainability work we undertake at Tom Crean’s Brewery Kenmare. Check out this podcast, and if you are interested or want to learn more, get in touch.

This week on Ours to Protect we’re taking a look at a local brewing company, that has made sustainability a priority from the start.  The Tom Crean Brewery in Kenmare was the first brewery in Ireland to put solar PV panels on their roof. The team use an electric cargo quad bike to do deliveries, and have developed a system to convert the spent grain used for brewing into silage. Aileen and Bill have been looking at ways that grain could be re-used. They’ve also set up a bio digester in their garden.  If you’re interested in any of the projects you’ve just heard about contact the Tom Crean Brewery in Kenmare. Aileen and Bill are very willing to share their research!
