Inspired by the beauty of their natural surroundings and an ethos of care and dedication, the Celtic monks of the 6th century St Molings monastery in south Carlow produced the Book of Moling, a book of great craftsmanship and artistic achievement. A product of this same environment Molings Traditional Celtic Beer is brewed with the same care and dedication and strives for the same achievement. Molings is a fruity and aromatic beer with a distinctive coffee like finish. The traditional hop flavour balances the sweet malty caramel taste. Brewed with pale malt , torrified wheat crystal malt and generous portion of roasted barley, Molings is an excellent accompaniment to roast dishes.

[1] Review by lenusik from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer once. (7/27/2008 11:07:08 PM)
"A classic Irish Red in the strongest of traditions. The beer poured a clear red colour with a 1" white head that lingered a while. The aroma was sweet malt with an excellent hoppish back. The flavour was nuttly, malty, with some good strong hoppish flavour to round it out. An easy drinking ale from the Emerald Isle."

[2] Review by Phishpond417 from Madtown, Wisc, USA who has tried this beer once. (3/17/2008 11:29:11 AM)
"Pours a dark reddish-brown colour with a full, off white head. Scattered polka dot lacing on the glass. Aroma is pleasent, mildly malted, slight caramel and lightly roasted coffee. Taste is lighter as well, not a lot of carbonation, so retention is poor. But taste is sweet and creamy. "

[4] Review by Chopz from Cantley, Canada who has tried this beer once. (12/19/2007 6:11:07 PM)
"Pours a deep red-brown colour with a nice creamy tanned head that stays long enough, and nice dirty lacing is left on the glass. Beautiful soft scent of malt and kind of nutty. After breathing a little, the nose appears rusty. Watery mouthfeel and mild carbonation. The taste is suttle with a little bitter finish. Hints of caramel malt also in the flavour. Pretty decent mild Irish red ale that I would have again."

[5] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (11/14/2007 1:15:16 PM)
"Bottle: Poured a clear burgundy color ale with a big foamy head with average retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of medium sweet malt is somewhat bland. Taste is a mix between some medium sweet malt with some notes of caramel and mild fruity yeast. Body is about average with some average carbonation."
