Description
Established 1996 on the third generation family farm amidst the spectacular Mourne Mountain range in the north of Ireland, Whitewater Brewery still retains the passion and desire to brew beers with fantastic flavours.

We started with an 800 Litre brew size and currently we’re handcrafting 6500 Litre brews and bottling our 10 different beers on site. On 4th February 2016 we obtained Planning Permission to build a new brewery and after 20 years the next chapter begins. Our new brewery has the capacity to produce around 40,000 litres a month and has scope for further expansion.

We source spring water from the Mourne Mountains which is blended with American, Australian and New Zealand hops to create best-selling beers.

The company produces bottle-conditioned beers and ales and also supplies products in kegs to customers throughout Ireland. We’re expecting wild times ahead along with great beers….pick up a Whitewater and enjoy the journey.

Cask@GBBF2007. Golden colour, not much head. Aroma is very hoppy and fruity along with hints of wood. The same goes for the flavour. Not the most interesting beer.

Cask at GBBF 2006, as Belfast Bitter. An orange beer with a rim of off-white head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of hops, caramel, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of oranges, caramel, and malt. Plain, but nice.

[Cask at GBBF] Deep golden. Grapefruity hop aroma. Deep, clean chewy malt character, but aromatic hops dominates. Solid body, salty bitter finish.

[Cask at GBBF] Clear pale amber. Grapefruit aroma with a touch of grain. Medium dry with clean, rounded mouthfeel. The aromatic grapefruity hops gives it an American feel. Sweaty aromatic finish with good bitterness.

Cask@The Bridge House, Belfast. Copper brown, small off-white head. Light bready malty, hoppy nose. Sweetish malty (toasted pan cake flavor), then hoppy bitterness. Good balanced - nice session ale. Fresh cask.
