Description
The Oslo was the start of Galway Bay Brewery and remains our flagship pub based in Salthill; our owners Jason O’Connell and Niall Walsh added a brewery on site in 2009, making The Oslo one of the country’s first brew pubs. Since then Galway Bay Brewery has expanded operations to 11 bars based in Galway and Dublin and have grown and re-positioned the Brewery just outside of Galway in Oranmore. We now produce four core beers along with a plethora of rotational beers that are released throughout the year.

With the installation of our new brew house we are turning our focus towards exporting and making our beers available in the UK and Europe

Zwart met mooie kaki kraag en goed plakkerig. Aroma van geroosterde en gebrande mouten, vanille, iets van laurier, cacaopoeder, chocolade, koffie, prima. Smaken zijn zacht, matig zoet, alcohol, lichte scherpe toets, matig bitter, geroosterd en gebrand, lichte laurier, koffie, bonen, vanille, cacaopoederig en chocolade, had voor mij wel iets dikker gemogen qua textuur, redelijke body, goede afdronk.

Bottle from Burg, batch 0366 BB 03.03.18, 33 cl sample. Cloudy golden color, short frothy head. Aroma of slight citrussy hop, bit yeasty, bit flowery tea. Soft bitterness, sharp dry yeasty notes. Too much yeast, that made the beer too dry and therefore the bitterness too sharp. Mediocre.
