We paid them to create a beer for us, we gave the desired style, colour, abv etc, and this is what they came up with. They cannot sell this as their own beer, as this is the agreement.

But I would always tell where it came from, consumer rights and all that. Plus it's a pleasure to deal with Carlow Brew Co. in this, pure professionals (and a mad brewer).

alan gold label Offline Posts: 202	I had one on Friday. I love that there's a new addition. I think i'd prefer the old British model of drink and pubs where all the locals are tied to breweries rather than what became the Irish model where there's one drink you can get anywhere!

bighair Offline Posts: 146	Popped in last night to give it a try, not bad and a good idea to bring in a lower strength session beer. Came across as Galway Hooker "lite" in my opinion, switched back to the full fat version after just the one. grainne felt it reminded her of drinking a non-alcoholic beer for some reason, she couldn't figure out why though.
