WILMINGTON, DE – From Friday, March 13 until Tuesday, March 17, Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant (11 locations across DE, NJ and PA) will feature their Irish-style O’Sullivan Stout on draught, just in time for St. Patrick’s Day.  In addition, the bar will pour a signature Black & Tan, playfully called Ore’Sullivan Black & Tan, with O’Sullivan Stout and their newest house beer, Ore House IPA.

“This beer is especially meaningful to me because of my family’s roots in Ireland; in fact, I was inspired to brew it as a memento of a long-ago trip to visit my uncle there,” says Director of Brewing Operations Mark Edelson.  “For an authentic taste of the age-old Irish brewing tradition, our guests need look no further than their local Iron Hill, where we’ll be pouring O’Sullivan Stout both on its own and in Ore’Sullivan Black & Tan to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.”

O’Sullivan Stout is a classic Irish-style dry stout, black in color with a roasty malt flavor and a pronounced dry finish.  Iron Hill serves it on nitro, for a smooth, creamy mouthfeel.  Inspired by Edelson’s visit to his family homestead in Ireland, along with Iron Hill co-founder Kevin Finn, four years before they opened their first brewery, the beer is a nod to the long, proud Irish brewing tradition and a delicious tribute to Edelson’s uncle, who gamely showed the American boys around town despite his utter surprise when they showed up – unannounced! – on his doorstep.  For the Ore’Sullivan Black & Tan, it will be poured with Iron Hill’s house IPA, Ore House IPA, a golden ale with balanced hop bitterness and bright citrus and pine aromas and flavors.
