The Stout Trail and the Causeway Coast: Dublin and Northern Ireland

For connoisseurs, beer, whiskey, and golf alike, combining golf’s Stout Trail on Ireland’s east coast, along with the great courses of Northern Ireland, is a tour that’s hard to resist. Starting near the Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland, continuing to Newcastle, where the Mountains of Mourne slide into the sea, and then down to the home of Guinness, you will play some of the finest courses Ireland has to offer, such as incomparable Royal Portrush, Royal County Down, and Portmarnock. Along the way are hidden delights such as Ballyliffin, County Louth, and The European Club, and pint after pint or glass after glass of the greatest stout and whiskey that the Emerald Isle has to offer!
