Dungarvan Brewing Company

We've recently listed the 3 beers produced by Dungarvan Brewing Co and they've been selling well.  The three beers are all in 500ml bottles and sell for €3.29 each. Here's more info on them - 



Black Rock Irish Stout
A good, old-fashioned bottle of stout. Robust, full-bodied with roasted barley flavours that give a slight coffee taste that is nicely complemented by notes of vanilla and aniseed.  Has been described as “how stout used to taste”! This stout can be enjoyed with robust meat dishes or on its own ‘from the shelf’.  Can even work as a “dessert beer”.

Copper Coast Red Ale
This is a smooth, fruity ale with a small amount of hop bitterness but more of a caramel taste  that makes it a lot easier to drink than the blonde ale. A lot of lager drinkers have said how they didn't *think* they were ale fans, but liked this one. Perfect accompaniment to any roasted meats as the caramel character of both complement each other nicely. 

Helvick Gold Blonde Ale
A refreshing, citrusy blonde ale but with a stronger bitter hop flavour.  More of a challenging drink than the others, appeals to people who are ‘into their beers’, but for someone not as used to trying other beers the red may be a better choice.  A good ‘sunny day’ drink. Works very well with spicy food .

Brainblasta

We've just started selling a few beers from The Porterhouse Brewing Co.  Brainblasta is a
big seller.  It's a deep copper coloured brew, offering the complexity of flavour from thrice
hopping and longer fermentation.  This leads to a fruit character from both the late kettle
Goldings and yeast fermentation.  It's 7% abv so be careful.  We have 4 Porterhouse beers
in stock - Brainblasta, Hophead, Porterhouse Red and Hersbrucker Lager.  They're €1.99
each or 4 for €7.

New Beer and an old friend

Here at Molloys we're trying to constantly add new and different products for our discerning customers.  A new lager that we've added this week is Tuskar lager, out first beer from East Africa, this 500ml bottle is in selected Molloys stores for €2.49.

Tusker Lager was the first beer in East Africa, being brewed there since 1922 by Kenya Breweries Ltd. Tusker lager is the winner or over 15 'Monde Selection Gold Medals'. The Monde Selection is an official institution established by the Belgium Government and checks for the highest quality standards in 
freshness, flavour and appearance.
Tusker is a medium lager at 4.2% It pours medium yellow in colour 
but with little of a head. It is quite crisp and 
clean and makes an ideal 'Sunday Afternoon' beer. Tusker leaves a satisfactory after taste. It tastes quite sweet and fruity. It has much more of a taste to it than many 
lagers and if you are looking for something different then this is probably worth 
checking out.




Victoria Bitter (better known as VB) was one of our best selling beers from Australia for many years.  Unfortunately with the constant mergers and takeovers of the world's largest beer companies in recent years, it became impossible to get VB here.  Until now that it.  We're delighted to have it back on our shelves.  You can now get a 6pk 375ml bottles for only €9.99.
