Our craft beer takes a little bit longer to brew than others. Selecting the finest ingredients and handcrafting the traditional process demands patience. But 35 years? That’s how long we’ve been making our full flavoured beers, improving and perfecting them year after year. It makes us the oldest independent brewery in Ireland and those who drink our beer agree it’s been time well spent.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms, Bristol 3/11/09. Deep gold, slightly hazy with a slight white head. Aroma of tinned peaches and digestive biscuits. Flavour was sweet with some apricot jam, earthy hops and a short, bitter finish. A half pint was enough.

(Cask at GBBF, London Earl’s Court, 5 Aug 2009) Copper colour with brief, off-white head. Fruity, malty nose with notes of nuts, apricots and grainy malt. Malty, slightly fruity taste with grain, dried fruit, apricots and a certain spicy, mild bitterness in the finish. Rather light body, balanced sweetness. Boring but drinkable.
