About
After years of talking about it as a family, the decision is taken in 2015/16 to make brewing the new family business. The family travel to various brewery manufactures and finally place an order for the system that is now in place in Kilcoole.Equipment starts arriving and the brewery is built and commissioned. Late 2017, test beers are put out at the Irish craft beer festival at the RDS. In 2018 Larkin’s formally launches into the market at the Alltech beer festival in March. Larkin’s is now distributed in pubs across Ireland as well as exporting to other markets in the EU.

440ml can at home. Pours a hazy amber with a small white head. Big tangerine and mandarin nose with some slight caramel notes. Flavour is also more of the citrus, mandarin and tangerine with some tropical fruit character, very slight malt sweetness. Finish is lovely and creamy

500 ml can at home. Pours a viscous deep brown to black with a slight brown head that dissipates quickly. Big imperial stout nose of chocolate, coffee, vanilla, some dark fruit notes as well. Quite easy to drink, the flavours are all there but no booziness. Slightly sweet character combines well with the roasted notes.

Taste is dry, bitter, fruity hoppy, slightly leafy, chalky and yeasty peppery spicy, diluted hints of tropical fruit, mango, peach, some passion fruit, some orange zest; bitter and minimally alcoholic finish. Watery-oily texture, smooth and soft palate.

Hazy gold beer, good bubbly pale cream colour head. Smooth airy palate, decent fine carbonation. Soft malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. Smooth pine. Nice juicy citrus if slightly thin. A light pinch of hop spice and a mild but pleasingly sweet tropical fruit undertone. Crisp finish. Nicely done. Light, crispy and fruity and tres easy to drink and drink too fast.
