Brita
In the ’60s, Heinz Hankammer founded the company BRITA, inspired by his daughter’s name. The idea behind it: to optimise tap water and in 1970, Brita launched the first water filter jug.
As any good barista will know that the secret to a great coffee is using great water, with the standard cup of cup is made up of between 90 – 98 percent water, making it the most important ingredient in brewing. Elements in water can influence your coffee’s taste, consistency and appearance. Brita now produce an entire range of filters, specifically for use in coffee shops and for brewing coffee.The result: water that tastes cleaner and fresher and aids in the brewing process.
We are delighted to have Brita as one of our primary sponsors for the Irish Brewers Cup 2019.

Hope Beer
Hope Beer has been producing craft beer at Howth Junction on the Kilbarrack Road since June 2016. Founded by a group of 3 old school-friends, they are now a team of 7 with a passion for making great beer which is widely available in Dublin! While Hope have a core range of 5 beers that they brew all year round, the real fun happens with their Limited Editions and Innovation brews from their pilot kit.
Their first excursion into coffee was with the Flat White Stout in March 2018 when they added 750 of Upside Coffee’s finest double espressos, lactose and Muscovado to create a smooth, velvety stout. Hope collaborated with Upside again just before Christmas for Limited Edition No. 13, this time an espresso stout, full of caramel and toasted malt flavours.
Like the sound of these? Well, Hope Beer have provided us with lots of tasty craft beer for the day of the competition, including a limited supply of both the Flat White Stout and the Espresso Stout – yum!
