The Carlow Brewing Company, also known as O'Hara's Brewing Company[1] is an Irish craft brewery located in Muine Bheag, County Carlow.[1] It is one of the largest craft breweries in Ireland.[2]
History
Ireland has traditionally had a long history of brewing. At the beginning of the nineteenth century there were over two hundred breweries in the country, producing a wide range of Irish beer. This number dropped significantly by the twentieth century due to the dominance of a few large and famous breweries. By 2007 there were only about 12 breweries in the country, with most producing mass-produced beer, backed by formidable marketing budgets.[3]
After seeing the wider range of beers available in bars in the United States and Continental Europe, Seamus O'Hara established the Carlow Brewing Company in 1996[4] along with his brother Eamonn.[2] Due to the dominance of macro beers in Ireland at the time, the brewery was initially very export orientated.[4] Interest in the brewery, and craft beer in general, has increased.[5]
