Hi, I got an external offer with decent hike. They have given 7 days to acknowledge on the offer. I am planning to try few other good roles in pipeline before joining them. Is it normal in Ireland to accept the offer now and later inform that I won't be able to make it if I get a much good offer? Any suggestions would be very helpful.

I would suggest be honest and inform them that you are also exploring other opportunities. It goes same way as we say to candidates that we are also interviewing other candidates but we will close the loop in a week’s time. You may be forever blacklisted if you accept now and then decline. It is not a good practice to accept then decline. Though it is how most folks do. I ensure to blacklist such candidates from any future role at my firm unless they have been honest from start. It speaks a lot about the candidate too if they are open about also exploring other opportunities. You may not get extra days but you will be respected.
