About
The O'Hara family set up Carlow Brewing Company in 1996 and it brews the O'Hara's range, the stout, the red and the pale ales you will see on taps across the county and well beyond it, as well as Falling Apple and Craigies ciders; the beers are sold nationwide and exported. The brewery is not in the town: it is about sixteen kilometres south, in the Muine Bheag Business Park on the Royal Oak Road outside Bagenalstown. It runs brewery tours that walk through the whole brewing process and finish with a tasting, and Carlow Tourism lists them at ten euro a head, but they are by arrangement, so ring or email before you drive down.
