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.

Fruity and juicy DIPA. Moderately bitter, plenty of stone fruit, quite sturdy. Mango, stone fruit, tiny bit tropical, fairly dank. Not great, but definitely good enough. Solid stuff without much weirdness.

Fat på Örebro Ölhall. Halvdisig mörkgul med vit krona. Fruktigt och lite kakigt med bra, torr beska. Faller någonstans mellan New England och en torrare, klassiskt besk IPA. Mycket citrus och grape, aprikos, gröna druvor och campino. Gott.
