Roundstone is a fine Irish ale, brewed from 100% malted barley and a blend of three types of hops in Clonmel, Co. Tipperary. At first sip the pint delivers a sweet toffee aroma, but with subtle hop tones and an unusually well-balanced and smooth flavour. At 4% ABV the stunningly smooth Roundstone is a robust choice. This is a pint to be enjoyed with friends; something to be earned, then appreciated and savoured in good company.

[On tap at the Bushmills Inn, Bushmills.] A reddish amber pour with a thick cream head; caramel aroma; smooth in the mouth with a bittersweet malt taste. An innocuous Irish Ale.
