When we asked Lexi, one of the owners, which Bucketty’s beer was her favourite, she answered: “I was lager all the way… then we did the stout!”
It’s hard to understand how a 3.5 percent ABV dry Irish stout could capture this much character. Big, roasty aroma, smooth nitro creaminess, subtle coffee flavours, enough chew to keep you coming back for more, and a super sessionable strength that you could sit with all night.
Released on St Patrick’s Day 2021, this stout found its way into the hands of a number of Irish punters at Bucketty’s, some of whom approached the bartenders to exclaim: “This is better than Guinness!”
Maybe it’s the nitro. Maybe it’s the vibe at the venue. Maybe it’s the magic of St Patty's Day. But who are we to argue?
