Guinness Sourdough Bread and the Monks Who Kept Its Secrets Alive
Guinness Sourdough Bread is more than a recipe — it’s a story of tradition, flavour, and history. This unique bread blends the bold, malty richness of Guinness stout with the tangy depth of naturally leavened sourdough. Rooted in ancient Irish baking traditions, the story of this bread weaves through the monasteries where monks preserved both brewing techniques and the art of sourdough baking. In this recipe, we honour both Ireland’s brewing heritage and the legacy of heritage grains by incorporating Red Fife flour, bringing the past into the present with every slice.
