Description
Established in 2014, owner Seamus McMahon has set up a lovely brewery in one of the old sheds, located behind the milking parlour. This brewery is set up on a working Dairy Farm. The team have renovated the shed to exacting specifications. The brewery is set amongst the rolling drumlins of County Monaghan. Our aim is to create distinct beers that are brewed with care and affection. We have created a range of well balanced and flavoursome ales that reflect the changing face of the beer market in Ireland.

50cl bottle from Westholme Stores, Goring. A gushing pour leaving a half glass of bright, pale amber beer, and a half glass of soapy suds; the aroma has some bitter orange and pine and is rather off putting; the taste is very hoppy - oily & resinous - with some spice and orange juice; then the finish is very dry. Overall a very unwelcoming IPA.
