Our roots are deeply embedded in the hilly fields and farms of northeast Donegal. This is the perfect environment for the way we make beer. We don’t filter or pasteurise, and we let our industrious little friends, the yeast, carbonate the beer naturally during fermentation.
With the opening of K2, our new state-of-the-art facility in nearby Letterkenny in March 2017, the clinking of bottles coming off our line no longer mingles with the bleating of sheep from the surrounding fields. The farmhouse ethos at the core of what we do however remains the same.

For me this ipa is well brewed, perfect beverage to be refresh or closing your eyes. This one is well balanced, subtle, aromatic, bitter and citrus, a touch of fruit and discreet sweetness at the final, 20.05.20, at Epalinges.

Very German style beer brewed by a very Irish brewery, thanks to my girlfriend for the can straight from Ireland! Thick and foamy, snow white, stable, lacing head over a clear pure golden blonde beer with lively visible sparkling, turning lightly misty with sediment. Aroma of freshly baked white bread, freshly cut grass, potato starch, pumice, wet sand, minerals, hard green apple, Graham crackers, sweaty touch lagging behind. Crisp, clean onset, some very restrained fruitiness from that limited yeast residue, hinting faintly at unripe banana and green apple; remains very low in sweetness though, with a lively carbonated, smooth mouthfeel, in which minerally carbonation runs through cereally, straightforwardly white-bready maltiness, pure and simple, picking up a soft grassy hop bitter note in the end, which lingers a bit with gently drying effect. Feels natural, clean, to the point and pure, but perhaps a tad too generic to fully qualify as a Kölsch - a style which needs perfection in its tiniest details to be of significant distinction, something which is only very rarely accomplished outside of Cologne. That being said, this Limeburner is technically very well executed and refreshing on a summer day - I would happily drink this all afternoon.

0.44 l can from a local Carry Out store in Cork. Brnja's Stag Party. Unclear bright golden, small off-white head. Grainy aroma, slightly floral and fruity. Mostly clean. Not grassy, not cloying, slightly creamy, medium body. Flavour is bready, quite rich. Dry finish.
