Carlow Brewing Company is a small Irish Brewery established in 1998. Carlow, the traditional malt and hop producing region in Ireland, once boasted a number of breweries, but the practice had been discontinued for over 100 years until revived in 1998 by Carlow Brewing Company.


The beers produced are based on traditional Celtic beer styles and use wholesome ingredients ( malt, hops, yeast and water) brewed in the natural process. The Brewery has received international recognition for its beer at the Millennium Brewing Industry International Awards when O'hara's Stout was judged to be the Worlds Number 1 Stout by winning the Gold Medal and the Championship Trophy in the Category for International Darks, Milds, Stouts and Porters.
