Harp Lager

Pros: It's from Ireland
Cons: Kind of expensive

Ah, Harp Lager! What a nice, light change of pace from Guinness. I think that heaven can be defined as follows: A sunny Saturday afternoon with temperatures around 80. You and your buddies are playing some guys from work for the ultimate prize.... a...

Pros: no funky after taste
Cons: none

I Have never been a big fan of and other beer besides bud light. they always seem to be to bitter or have a funky aftertaste, well 2 years ago i was in Ga. and a girl told me to try guenis, i did and i didnt like it, well she said then try this and...

Pros: Its like Guinness without the coal tar derivatives!
Cons: A bit pricey, a bit fruity.

Harp Lager from the brewers of Guinness is light golden amber colour, like the stuff from Jamaica, not the buttery Balkan stones. It produces a nice head, somewhat quick to fade, but remains effervescent substantially longer then say, Bud ...

Pros: Drinkable, cheap lager
Cons: Over hyped and over priced for what it is.

Harp lager is as Irish as a taco. Yes they make tacos in Eire. They also sell and eat them there, but they hardly qualify as an Irish product.

Harp is a pleasant enough lager, and does indeed 'stay sharp to the bottom of the glass', but...

Pros: Less filling than a stout with great full flavor
Cons: The best Harp is all the way in Ireland

My first encounter with Harp occurred in the land of shamrocks and leprechauns. I found Guinness to be fairly tasty in the pubs, but after a few I felt completely weighed down. With my stomach sinking like a rock, a cute little Irish bar man...

Pros: nice aroma, interesting hint of Caramel
Cons: too bitter

I really wanted to Love Harp Lager, but I don't. Several people have raved to me about this beer, so when I had the oppurtunity to try a bottle I was ready for a treat.

The cold truth is that Harp is a good beer, but not a great beer. The...

Pros: crisp and clean taste
Cons: getting expensive because it's so popular

Only in the last couple of years have I found Harp. And even then it was in a very roundabout way. I spent the better part of my 20's drinking microbrews based here in the US. Eventually, though, I started drinking mainly Irish beers, and those were...

Pros: Nice flavor, not overly priced for an import.
Cons: (Hic) No, I've never been convicted.

... it makes me a jolly good fellow, as Tom T. Hall would say.

Harp is a fine Irish lager, with an interesting, hoppy flavor. I'm not a beer snob, but I do prefer imports, microbrews, etc., to the standard yellow water that comes out of the...

Pros: Excellent, smooth taste. Very refreshing when served ice cold, just as good served at room temperature.
Cons: Hard-to-find item, somewhat expensive.

Harp Ale is a little-known beer brewed in Dublin, Ireland, and shipped to the United States via a Connecticut hub. It is relatively expensive, as I well know ($32.50 per case at last purchase - Pennsylvania), but my taste buds offer to...

Pros: lightness, taste, no after taste
Cons: not for light weights or those with no food in their stomach

As an avid pilsner drinker, I was skeptical about my friend's argument that Harp was a great tasting beer. I tried Harp a few times in a bottle and wasn't too impressed. Last Saturday night, I broke down and ordered Harp, but this time on draught. I was...

Pros: Smooth, balanced taste; great with food or without; no funny aftertaste
Cons: Costs more than domestics and cheaper imports, but it's not too pricey

As I've said before, I'm no beer expert, not by a long shot. But I know what I like and what I don't.

I don't like a beer that's too bitter, or that has a strange aftertaste, and a lot of them do. This one never does.

Once brewed...

Pros: Taste
Cons: Lighter

Harp is a wonderful beer when your looking for a light bodied but flavorful beer. I keep it on a list of good standbys when I either can’t find what I’m looking for or I want something simple. Please don’t think thought that it isn’t the fine beer that...

Pros: flavor
Cons: cost

What an experience!!
I am a regular domestic brew guy, but when I tried Harp on my birthday I was sold on it's bold flavor! It is a very good way to complement a hardy Irish meal. Anyone who wants to explore something other than the same old...

Pros: IRISH
Cons: NONE

Harp Lager has a unique, robust flavor, unlike many other lagers. Its smooth pour-factor is equivalent to that of a fluid moving Irish brook.

What distinguishes Harp Lager from many others is its adaptability; for instance: whether you're...

Pros: Great taste, not bitter, not heavy
Cons: None

I would respectfully disagree with the epinions member who called Harp "little-known," at least here in the NYMetro area, it is one of the most popular Irish beers. Brewed by Guinness, this is a great, great beer. Many consider Stout to be...
