Its Spring(ish) & more wines just in 

"Thank you for your patience as we have had the shop on a partial closure ( i.e. take orders for collection and in some cases delivery ). We felt it was the right thing to do with the numbers so high. 

The good news is that the bare shelves have been restocked and a few new wines have arrived including a big winter Malbec Gran Reserva. 

We hope to open up again properly soon but for the moment we will keep the the call/email to order for collection model. You can pay over the phone and we can drop it out to your car without any contact when you collect. In some instances, for our more vulnerable customers, we can arrange to drop it to locally. 

You can email brendan@rednosewine.com with an idea of what you want or alternatively call 085-8889045 and we will get back to you with options asap. Ideally we plan to facilitate collections twice a week as the shop won’t be manned at regular hours."

Wicklow Wolf Strikes Again

Apex Espresso 

Endangered Species No. 16 

 

We have taken our delicious Oatmeal Stout, Apex and let our brewer’s imagination run wild. The result? An Espresso Oatmeal Stout. We enlisted the help of our friends in Java Republic to add over 2,500 fresh shots of AA Single Origin Costa Rican Dota espresso to the brew.

Apex Espresso is a delicious, 6.5% oatmeal stout that is packed full of fresh dark fruits, chocolate, honey and of course a strong burst of fruity espresso. These flavours are all supported with a hint creamy sweetness and a smooth, lingering finish leaving you wanting more.

WHIPLASH AND THE

FAKEY CAKE MAKER

Here you have it, our very own silly stout. Fakey made a brief appearance on draught back toward the end of 2019 when we’d just commissioned our new brewhouse and we’ve been wanting to put this very silly beer to can for some time now. A nice counterbalance to the no frills Fatal Deviation, Fakey Cake Maker sees us frill it up with a very complex grist of Pilsner, Carabohemian, British Dark Crystal, Chocolate malt and molasses rich Muscovado Sugar to lay the thick engine oil, soupy soupy groundwork for more messing in tank. Fermented on Coconut Puree for a creamy and thick Bounty Bar mouthfeel consistency before a heavy coffee addition of bright single origin Ethiopian coffee from our friends at 3FE and the final addition of roasted hazelnuts to garnish this sauce with more decadence.

We’d considered the addition on a fine brogue but were unsure of how to fit it in the mash filter, but we won’t be annoyed if anyone sends us their best pic of this being poured lavishly from a shoe.

2/3 new beers launching this evening on the webshop.

O'Briens Whiskey Offer, including Teelings.

Irish whiskey is experiencing a renaissance with many new distilleries setting up, showcasing the diverse range of whiskey now produced on the island. Teeling Whiskey, winners of over 60 international awards over the last few years, are placing themselves at the forefront of this movement. Their goal is to produce a collection of whiskeys that illustrate the breadth of choice and the different styles and flavours that Irish whiskey has to offer. With this in mind I have picked out three whiskeys that show case the versatility of their range.

Whichever you choose we have plenty on offer in our Irish Whiskey Sale, with 10% off a selection of great Teeling whiskeys.
