About

O'Hara's Irish Red is brewed by Carlow Brewing Company, an independent family-owned brewery established in 1996 and a pioneer of Irish craft beer. The beer pours a deep red-amber with a dense, persistent head that catches the eye. This red ale balances a caramel-forward malt body with restrained hop bitterness. The aroma offers toffee and brown sugar with undertones of coffee. On the palate, waves of malt and hop intertwine in a clean, dry finish—sweet without being cloying, and surprisingly complex for its modest strength. At 4.3% ABV, O'Hara's Irish Red is a sessionable ale that honours the Irish red ale tradition, brewed simply with water, malt, hops and yeast.
