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.

Can from Asda, Wycombe. Hazy pale gold with a white head and a middling fizz. Big fruity nose of mango and lemon. Taste is similar albeit more muted, with a touch of coconut thrown in for good measure. The mouthfeel is creamy and slightly chalky with a restrained bitterness. Decent if not spectacular, I rather enjoyed it.

8 Can from Whole Foods, Piccadilly, London. My first from this brewery. Murky yellow with a large white head. Quite fizzy. Papaya and pink grapefruit and pineapple. Sticky and lightly resinous with a touch of chalk. An unexpected spicy burst of chilli flakes in the aftertaste. Thought it was too fizzy at first, but the fizz becomes pleasantly frothy and makes it more drinkable. Tasty and moreish - excellent stuff, I really enjoyed this.
