Skellig Monk Irish Blonde Beer

Monks have been producing beer for 1,500 years, and in that time, they have revolutionized and perfected the beer-making process. Brewed in County Kerry, Ireland, McGill’s ‘Skellig Monk’ is a refreshing Blonde Ale inspired by the monks who lived on Sceilig Mhichíl. Sceilig Mhichíl, is the larger of the two Skellig Islands, situated 12 kilometres off the Iveragh Peninsula in Kerry. Monks founded a monastery on the island at some point between the 6th and 8th century and it remained continuously occupied until it was abandoned in the late 12th century. The UNESCO World Heritage Site stands as a testament to human endeavor with these monks over coming great challenges to create a monastic settlement on one of the most amazing places on earth. Skellig Monk Irish Blonde Beer is refreshing Blonde with wonderful citrus notes.
