O'Hara's Irish Nitro Stout
$3.49
From the Brewery
"The excitement around the brewery over the last number of months about this release has been overwhelming, in what has been an ambition of the team here for many years we have just this week, put our O’Hara’s Irish Stout Nitro into 440ml Cans and due to widget technology this will allow you to experience the same brilliant cascading effect and smooth creamy head as a draught pour. You’ll recognise the same great flavours of O’Hara’s Irish Stout with trademark robust roast flavour complemented by a full-bodied and smooth mouth feel.
Nitro Stout:
Nitrogenation was used in stouts to approximate the smooth carbonation typical of cask conditioned ales and has become the norm for kegged Irish stout and now for our canned version, giving a smooth creamy texture to the head.
The brewing process:
We wanted to give a real and truly Irish flavour to our stout that can only be created by craft brewing with locally sourced Irish malts. We use no less than 5 malt and wheat varieties to make our traditional dry Irish stout. This diverse malt combination is brought to life through our carefully managed mashing and boiling process. The fabulous flavours and aromas generated are offset by a number of select old style hop variety additions to create this truly complete Irish Stout. Whether you select our nitrogenated draught stout, while you watch the hypnotic sight as the glass slowly cascades into a creamy head, or try our carbonated bottle stout, we hope you appreciate the flavours and enjoy

Boann Madeira Cask Irish Whiskey
$97.99
Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey initially matured in ex-Bourbon before finishing in Madeira casks. 47%
Producer Description
"Initially, matured in ex-Bourbon Barrels from the famed Brown Forman of Kentucky and made from American Oak 200ltr (Quercus Alba) with a heavy charring. We filled these casks with a mixed mash bill Single Pot Still distillate which included malted barley, unmalted barley, oats and rye. All of these grains are Irish and grown locally.
"In collaboration with the famous Madeira house, Justino’s, we sourced some of their finest vintage Madeira casks of Tinta Negro (1998 & 2000), Boal (1999) and Sercial (1999, 2000 & 2006) Madeira Colheita wine single varietals. We were able to access these casks from a friendship that has flourished from a previous special collaboration. The wines have been fortified and undergone the canteiro process where the wine is barrel aged with naturally high temperatures in the barrel storage room, replicating the sea voyage maritime aging of the past on Portugal galleons of the medieval ages.
"All casks were formally 350ltr Cognac casks made from (Quercus Robur) French Oak. These Madeira wines ranged from Sweet to Medium to Dry, offering a wide depth and breadth of the terroir of the volcanic island of Madeira.
"The label design of this expression talks about water which is a vital ingredient when making whiskey. This is also a nod to the flowing waters of the Boyne River as well as the North Atlantic Ocean surrounding the Madeira Islands."

Boann Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey – PX Cask
A New Dawn….
Initially, matured in Oloroso Sherry Hogsheads from Bodegas Garvey’s of Jerez da la Frontera, Spain. These 250ltr American Oak (Quercus Alba) hogsheads were chosen alongside George Espie (RIP ex Master of Wood from The Macallan) and Ventura Nunez from the famed Vasyma Cooperage in Jerez.
We filled these casks with a mixed mash bill Single Pot Still distillate which included malted barley, unmalted barley, oats and rye. All of these grains are Irish and grown locally.
We then sourced the most amazing PX casks we have ever come across. These PX Butts 500ltr+ were discovered by our partner cooperage in Andalusia, R.L. Rodriguez, and hail from the Mediterranean climes of Malaga. They had been in a vintage PX Solera system for over 60 years and were thick to the bone with gorgeous PX syrupy wine.
A portion of these casks are made exclusively from Chestnut, which is a very rare variety of wood to mature whiskey in Ireland. Our friends across the water in Scotland can only mature their spirit in oak casks.
We then finished our wonderful Oloroso Sherry matured Single Pot Still in these rare vintage PX Solera Casks.
Harmonising the Oloroso Sherry hogsheads maturation with the rich Spanish PX Butts has created something truly special and decadent.
The label design of this expression talks about the wood and the grain of the cask. As we have used very rare and special 60yo Chestnut PX Solera Butts for this whiskey."
