Kilkenny

Irish red ale

Back

Next to Guinness, the classic red ale is probably the best-known Irish beer. The beer can be traced back to a marketing move: When Smithwick's began to be exported in the early 1980s, almost no one on the European mainland could pronounce the name correctly. They looked for a new name and found Kilkenny. So the reddish-brown Irish ale is now called the same as the city from which it originally comes. Kilkenny is tapped with nitrogen and therefore has a fine-pored, lush head.

About

Kilkenny

Take a sip of Irish Red Ale and sit back. What you taste is the result of more than 300 years of Irish brewing tradition and the history of the Smithwick family, who with perseverance and skill have made this beer what it is today. A proven recipe and innovative ideas - the perfect blend to combine tradition and modernity in an outstanding beer. Smithwick's has been known in Germany since 1987, albeit under a different name: in 1980, the Kilkenny brand was created for export. Thus, in our country, the traditional Irish beer is reminiscent of the place where it was first brewed.
