From the label

“The name Dublin comes from the Gaelic "Dubh Linn" or "Black Pool" - where the Poddle stream met the River Liffey to form a deep pool at Dublin Castle. In 837 AD, sixty Viking longships attacked churches round the Poddle & Liffey estuary, & the invaders made a permanent settlement in 841. From 1014 – 1170: The Vikings adopted Christianity & founded Christ Church Cathedral. Today, Irish and Vikings still make ale together, side by side... Sláinte Mhath Collaboration with Oppegaard Meadery Scottish wee heavy with Buckwheat Honey, Thistle Honey, & Clover Honey Aged in Woodford Reserve's double-oaked, Mead and Chambers Bay Distillery Barrels”
