Harp Lager, (sometimes marketed as Harp Irish Lager) is a Vienna-style lager brand created in 1960 by the Guinness Brewery (now Diageo) in its Dundalk brewery. It is a leading lager brand in Ireland, and is also popular in Australia, Canada, Africa and the United States. The product is brewed in the Dundalk brewery in Ireland and the Hydes brewery in Great Britain. In Great Britain distribution is handled by Bargain Beer Supplies.
The Harp’s distinctive, refreshing taste has been several times recognized by the international quality institute Monde Selection who awarded the brand with 6 Gold Quality Awards during the years.
Famous quotes containing the word harp:
“God, who gave to him the lyre,
Of all mortals the desire,
For all breathing men’s behoof,
Straitly charged him, “Sit aloof;”
Annexed a warning, poets say,
To the bright premium,—
Ever, when twain together play,
Shall the harp be dumb.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
