Description
Bullhouse was initially founded back in 2016 to bring to market styles of beer not commonly available in Northern Ireland. To that end, the first beers we brewed were an Imperial Stout and a Comber Potato Saison.
We work to the following four values which determine the beers we brew, our responsibility to our local community and to the local environment.
- Transparency
- Curiosity
- Community
- Creativity
With environmental sustainability at our core, we pride ourselves on using local suppliers where possible for our raw materials. All our base malts are grown on the island of Ireland. Unfortunately we don't have the climate to grow hops in Belfast, but we contract the freshest hops from around the world to ensure our hoppy beers are as flavourful as possible.
We naturally carbonate our beers using the CO2 produced during fermentation and have eliminated tank to tank transfers, further reducing our environmental impact.

Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of citrus, orange peel, pineapple, peaches, tropical fruit and a balanced citric/tropical bitterness in the finish. Medium body, dry. Hoppy and refreshing. Nice one.

On tap at Fuggles Cafe Tonbridge. Black beer lasting tan head. Chocolate dark aroma. Some molasses aroma. It's got some dark chocolate some molasses some dark fruits. So.e sourness towards the end. Decent strong stout. All makes sense in the mouth. A juicy molasses dark fruits beer. OK.
