Heinekan: Brewed in Holland since 1873, this Dutch-style lager is smooth, elegant, crisp and balanced. Its mildly bitter taste, fresh, fruity aroma, bright color, and exceptional clarity are obtained using only the purest water, hops, and barley malt. These quality ingredients and their secret “A-yeast” give Heineken its distinctive taste. Heineken goes great with just about everything - mild cheeses, fruits, salads, chicken and seafood.
ABV: 5.0

Peroni: Brewed since 1846, Peroni is Italy’s best selling lager. Beers under the Peroni brand include Crystall, Peroni Gran Riserva, Peroncino, Peroni Leggera and our favorite Nastro Azzurothe.

As you might have guessed, it goes great with pastas, sausages and pizza.

Game dishes, particularly venison, are an outstanding pairing.

Murphy’s Irish Red: Purchased by Heineken in 1983, Murphy’s Irish Stout became Murphy’s Irish Red for export outside of the U.K. Regardless of the name, Murphy’s has been brewed according to the original recipe in Cork, Ireland since 1856. Chocolate malts and roasted barley give Murphy’s its distinctive characteristics and flavor. In contrast to its chief competitor Guiness, Murphy’s is lighter and sweeter with absolutely no carbonation. Goes great with steaks, oysters even desserts like chocolate mousse!

George Killian: A traditional lager with an authentic Irish heritage, based on the Killian’s family’s recipe created in Enniscorthy, Ireland in 1864. Coors acquired the rights to brew and market the product in America and Killian’s was introduced to the U.S. in 1981. Killian’s Irish Red derives its distinctive red-amber color and taste from a special caramel malt that has been roasted at a high temperature longer and more slowly than most malts.
