Chieftain IPA by Franciscan Well Brewery in Munster, Ireland

About Chieftain IPA by Franciscan Well Brewery

Franciscan Well Chieftain IPA is a hugely popular IPA, and Franciscan Well’s answer to Ireland’s growing demand for IPA style beers. IPA’s are traditionally high hopped to deliver intense bitterness that lingers on the pallet which usually limits what you can drink or taste after it. With Chieftain IPA, Shane wants everything an IPA has to deliver, but he wants you to be able to enjoy another beer after it. Chieftain IPA is a great stepping stone into the land of big and bitter.


Founded by Shane Long in 1998, Cork’s Franciscan Well Brewery and Brew Pub is one of Ireland’s longest established and best respected craft breweries.
