Irish Stout exports in the 1880s

Large quantities of Porter/Stout were exported from Ireland. The figures below must include to Great Britain as they exceed the numbers for total UK exports. Certainly, in the case of Guinness, the beer was almost all Stout. I’m sure the same was true for the other brewers.

The figures are dominated by Guinness, who accounted for more than three-quarters of the exports. Way ahead of the second-placed brewery, who could manage no more than 6%.

What’s odd, is that neither of the Cork brewers appears in the table. Perhaps these are just the figures for Dublin-based firms.
