This month’s pub is the South Pole Inn in Annascaul on the beautiful Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry. The South Pole Inn was first opened by famous Irish Explorer Tom Crean in 1927. Crean, also known as the Irish Giant, made three harrowing Antartic expeditions between 1901-1917 before retiring to his hometown and opening the pub. Gary Percival, the pub’s current owner, views the pub as a “working museum” and has put great effort into telling Crean’s story to patrons and preserving his memory. The pub is adorned with photos of Crean and his adventures, while the upstairs holds a gallery of another famous local – Jerome Connor. Connor was a sculptor who left Annascul for the USA where he found great success creating public sculptures. When he returned to Ireland in the 1920’s he left a selection of his works to the people of Annascul, and those are now housed in the gallery above the pub. While the pub is no longer run by the Crean family, they maintain a strong connection with his descendants and even serve an Expedition Ale, a red ale brewed locally by Tom Crean’s granddaughter. Next time you find yourself exploring the Dingle Peninsula be sure to stop in the South Pole and raise a pint to the great Irish Giant.
"I absolutely love these!!! I bought them as a gift for my boyfriend (now husband). He loved every month!!! I also steal his shirts cause they are awesome!!!!!!"
"I love this subscription. The t-shirts are awesome, they are comfortable, fit well, wash well, don’t shrink or fade and the colors are awesome. I love that each month the shirts come with a post card size information card about the history of the pub and the location along with the picture. It’s really a fun subscription to have."
"Purchased this for my husband as a gift. We were both very happy with shirts. I ordered six months worth and we loved every single one of them. The quality of the shirts was better than expected. My husband really had fun opening them each month."
"This shirt was soft and thick, very comfortable. My husband always enjoys his shirts from Pub Shirt Club. The quality is great and you learn a bit about a pub every month."

"Love, love, love this! Received first shirt and was very impressed! The subscription is a gift for my husband and I can’t wait until I can give him the first shirt. I’m betting he will think our son will need a subscription for his 40th birthday!"
"I have really enjoyed all your shirts. They are made of great material and I like the technology used to apply the images. The bonus is the Post Card. I really enjoy seeing the actual Bar and read about the specifics. I hope you are doing well."
