A traditional ale with a real taste of Kerry, fusing the majestic mountain landscape and the crashing Atlantic surf, we infuse a combination of seaweed and peaty turf flavour to give a taste of ancient Kerry.

440nl can from Cheeseboard. Hazy amber pour, small foamy beige head. Malty, sweet aroma. Taste is where it gets interesting, sweet, malty, caramel, salty. Light earthy, peaty notes. Yes, the seaweed here really brings a briny, salty presence with it. Dries out a bit towards the finish.

--Sample, thanks fonefan! -- Clear copper colour, rich firm head. Toasty nose with mild peat. Dry with light body and crisp, rounded mouthfeel. Salty and toasty with hints of peat and grass. Mid bitter finish. Unspectacular perhaps, but harmonious and unassuming. Would love to drink pints of this in Kerry.
