Kinnegar Brewing, established in 2011 by Rick LeVert and Libby Carton in the scenic area of Rathmullan, Co. Donegal, quickly rose to prominence within the Irish craft beer scene. Known for their method of producing unfiltered and naturally carbonated beers, Kinnegar Brewing embodies a farmhouse ethos even after their move to a modern facility in Letterkenny. The Donegal Lager Helles, part of their diverse portfolio, is crafted to mirror the refreshing simplicity of the German Helles style, characterized by its light body and subtle complexity.
