St.Kevin’s – The Miracle Ale of Glendalouch

One autumn day, while Kevin was busy preparing meals for some crop gatherers, a number of pilgrims called and asked for food. Kevin, filled with compassion, gave them the harvesters’ dinner. He was rebuked by his superiors for his action. He then told the attendants to fill all the ale jars with water and gather together all the bare meat bones. Then he prayed alone and, it is said, the water turned to ale and the bones were covered with meat again.
