Show Notes

The long-standing tradition of popping over to an Irish pub for an authentic pint of Guinness may be coming to an end. 

New data shows 108 pubs closed in 2022, with an average of 152 pubs closing annually since 2019.

UK correspondent Enda Brady says the combination of Covid-19 and the ongoing cost of living crisis has encouraged many Irish locals to drink at home instead.
