Like any Cork and Kerry marriage this pale ale is bitter sweet! Each pour throws a full-bodied, bitter sweet duel at your tastebuds. A classic aromaic hop flavour is acentuated by a late kettle hop addition. This is followed by warm maturation using both a traditional hop and one of the new hop breeds.
