Description
Metalman Brewing was born in 2011 when two beer enthusiasts decided they’d had enough of the outlandishly limited selection of beer available in Ireland, and decided to do something about it.
They started by contract brewing at a small brewery in Tipperary while building a brewery in Waterford city with a 6.5HL brewhouse. Draught Metalman started popping up in all sorts of places, and various brewery upgrades followed. At the end of 2014, they installed the first canning line at an Irish microbrewery, and cans of Metalman Pale Ale hit the shelves in January 2015. A brewhouse upgrade to 24HL followed later that year, as did various seasonal and limited edition releases.
Making beer is bloody hard work, but dammit it’s a lot of fun!

Canned. Amber colour, mediumsized fluffy head, which settles to a smaller creamy one. Aroma is caramel, toffee, some herbal, fruity and mild wooden notes. Flavour is quite bland, but has some wood, toffee, herbs, fruits and mild spruce. Almost too easy going.
