Frequently Asked Questions About Smithwick's beer
What kind of beer is Smithwick's beer?
Smithwick's beer is an Irish red ale, not a lager. Its malt-forward character and reddish colour distinguish it from pale, crisp lagers, while its bitterness stays relatively gentle.
How much alcohol is in Smithwick's beer?
The widely sold Smithwick's Draught is 3.8% alcohol by volume. Other versions may differ, so check the specific bottle or can if you need the exact strength.
Where is Smithwick's beer brewed today?
Smithwick's beer is brewed in Dublin today. The brand began in Kilkenny in 1710, and its historic association with the city remains prominent, including at the Smithwick's Experience visitor attraction.
What does Smithwick's beer taste like?
Smithwick's beer tastes malty and gently roasted, with a smooth finish and restrained bitterness. It is less dark and intensely roasted than a stout, and less sharply bitter than many hop-forward ales.
Is Smithwick's beer the same as Kilkenny beer?
No. Smithwick's is sold as an Irish red ale, while Kilkenny is a related but distinct beer commonly associated with a creamy, nitrogen-poured head. They share Irish brewing roots but are not interchangeable names.
How do you pronounce Smithwick's beer?
Smithwick's is usually pronounced “Smith-icks,” with the “w” effectively silent. The name comes from the Smithwick family, whose brewery in Kilkenny dates back to 1710.
What ingredients are in Smithwick's beer?
Smithwick's beer is brewed with water, malted barley, hops and yeast. Barley supplies much of its malty flavour and means the beer contains gluten.
What glass should you serve Smithwick's beer in?
Serve Smithwick's beer in a clean pint glass, pouring steadily so a modest head forms. A chilled beer is refreshing, but serving it ice-cold can mute its malt aroma.
What food goes well with Smithwick's beer?
Smithwick's beer pairs well with pub-style dishes such as roast meat, sausages, savoury pies and mature cheese. Its maltiness complements browned, savoury flavours without overpowering them.
Is Smithwick's beer a bitter beer?
No, Smithwick's beer is not strongly bitter. Its malt and gentle roasted notes take the lead, making it a milder-tasting choice than many ales with prominent hop bitterness.

What is Smithwick's beer?
Smithwick's beer is an Irish red ale, a malt-led beer style associated with Ireland. Its colour and character come from the malt, rather than from fruit or added flavourings.
Expect a gentle sweetness, toasted or biscuity malt notes and a restrained bitterness, with a fairly easy-drinking body. In Ireland it is commonly served chilled in a pub, alongside a meal or savoury pub snacks; elsewhere, it also pairs well with burgers, grilled foods and mature cheeses. Nutritionally, it is mostly a source of carbohydrates, with very little protein and no fat in the listed values. For a lighter pairing, try it with grilled vegetables or a crisp salad instead of fried sides.
