My Pub Chat with Stephen Magennis from Echlinville Distillery
Episode 199
Thursday, 19 February, 2026

Join me for My Pub Chat with Stephen Magennis from Echlinville Distillery. I met up with Steve in The Duke of York pub in Belfast city centre, truly one of the best decorated pubs on the island. Just amazing place to sit. We took up residence in the wee snug, down the back, an chatted about Stephen's time working in the whiskey industry for nearly 20yrs. Steve has a really good perspective of where we were before the resurgance of Irish Whiskey and where we are now. He is not afraid to speak the hard truths too and it made this chat all the more interesting.
