Brewing

Traditional Red Ale

The wonderful malty caramel notes and flavours found in our Irish Red come from a healthy addition of caramel malt to the mashing process.

The sweetness generated is balanced with dryness of the crystal malts.

Visually the red colour is intensified by the finest roast barley, while subtle hop additions in the kettle give just the right bitterness and aroma to craft this distinctive Irish Red Ale.

Taste & aroma

Caramel notes and flavours

The addition of a pinch of roast barley during the brewing process lends a distinctive bite which is balanced by a crisp medium bitterness.

The caramel flavours follow all the way to the end.

Excellent Red example

In recent years this sweet malt beer style has seen a renewed interest amongst the Irish drinker and O’Hara’s Irish Red ale is an excellent example of this style
