Ali’s Irish Ale by Hooked is the name of the fantastic new beer that is sure to go down a treat with seafood lovers.
Brewed and canned onsite at Galway Hooker Brewery’s premises in Oranmore, and made with seafood very much in mind, it is an ideal accompaniment to any of the tantalising dishes you’re sure to find at one of Hooked’s locations on Henry Street and in Barna.
Galway Hooker Brewery is the oldest existing brewery in Connacht, and they have been crafting beers since 2006.
Ali’s Irish Ale is brewed by them in the traditional style of an India Pale Ale, and the beer is packed full of citrus and tropical fruit flavours.
The new beer is well suited to seafood, cured meats, or dessert dishes, and it’s the ideal choice on your visit to Hooked, where you can enjoy all manner of fresh seafood favourites like spicy-coated calamari, steamed Killary Harbour mussels, and spicy shrimp taco.
Ali’s Irish Ale is named in honour of Hooked owner and culinary entrepreneur Ali Jalilvand who began his sea-faring journey in Galway in 1981 when he arrived to become a fishmonger.
Today, some 42 years later, Ali owns multiple restaurants across Galway as well as a fish shop. He knows the seafood industry inside-out, and his restaurants have garnered acclaim from near and far, in addition to winning awards.
“At Hooked, Seafood isn’t just our business, it’s our passion, and crafting dishes that bring together the best of our region’s produce is a journey that is as exciting today as it was when we opened our first restaurant,” Nuisín Jalilvand, Hooked Managing Director, said.
“We are thrilled to have teamed up with Galway Hooker to craft our very own Hooked beer that perfectly complements our seafood dishes.”
“We have been captivating our customers with Ali’s Fish Market and our restaurant menus over the years, and the introduction of Ali’s Irish Ale perfectly aligns with our culinary vision. What’s more harmonious than the trio of fish, chips, and beer?”
Ali’s Irish Ale can be savoured at either one of the Hooked locations on Henry Street or in Barna, so why not make a reservation and grab your favourite seafood dish and a glass of Ali’s Irish Ale?
