About this product
Soft hops. Juicy character. A modern, easy-going Irish IPA.
Big Bunny is Kinnegar Brewing’s East Coast IPA — a softer, more aromatic take on the style, designed to highlight hop flavour and mouthfeel rather than bitterness. Brewed in Donegal and presented in a 44cl can, this beer offers a smooth, approachable IPA experience that feels vibrant, fresh, and effortlessly drinkable.
Unlike West Coast IPAs, Big Bunny leans into rounded hop expression and a gentler structure. Juicy citrus, stone fruit, and subtle tropical notes lead the way, supported by a soft malt base that adds body without sweetness. Bitterness stays restrained, allowing the hop aromatics to shine and the beer to finish smooth and balanced.
For IPA drinkers in Ireland who enjoy hop-forward beers without sharp edges, Big Bunny is an ideal choice. It’s modern in style, relaxed in character, and brewed with the same precision and restraint that define Kinnegar’s approach to craft.
Why we love it:
Big Bunny is all about approachability. It delivers plenty of hop character while remaining soft, rounded, and easy to enjoy. The East Coast style suits Kinnegar’s philosophy perfectly — flavour-first, balanced, and endlessly drinkable. In can, the hop aromatics feel especially lively and fresh.
