The Brown Paper Bag Project

The team behind award-winning Dublin pubs L. Mulligan. Grocer and W.J. Kavanagh’s have recently created their own beer brand. Titled The Brown Paper Bag Project, the emphasis will be on innovation and experimentation, covering a wide range of beer styles, methods and ingredients and brewed at a variety of different breweries.

The first in the series was launched at W.J. Kavanagh’s on 24th November and is a dark Belgian style ale utilising a single variety of hop called Dr. Rudi, from New Zealand, which also gives the beer its name. Brewed at the Eight Degrees brewery in Mitchelstown, Co. Cork, Dr. Rudi is 7.4% ABV and available on draught in Mulligan’s and Kavanagh’s, as well as in 33cl bottles.

The Brown Paper Bag Project website is currently under construction here, and the Project is also on Twitter.
