May 26, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pours a deep amber with a nice tan head that sticks around. Aromas dominated by a caramel malt and light hoppiness follows suit. Initial taste is lighter than expected, Lighter caramel malt, a nice little citrusy hop bite that turns smooth and then gives way to a little bitter finish that leaves a pleasant caramel malt aftertaste and a faint spiciness. A beautiful medium bodied brew that smells wonderful and tastes pretty good too, albeit a little less than anticipated. Overall, very pleased with a beer I would have never picked up otherwise.

May 15, 2008 Bottle. Tawny brown body with a thick foamy beige head. Nose-big nose, sweet dust, stale hops, seltzer water, unsweet cola, crystal malts. Taste-good unsweet crystal malt, nice well rounded stale hops, great mouthfeel, perfect sweetens, great lactic, creamy, good brown ale notes, semi-dry, just a perfect mix of brown ale and creaminess, hops and malt are well done 9which, as an aside, is probably a good thing for a beer). An excellent rendition of a boring style. A perfect session beer.

May 3, 2008 A nice looking caramel color beer with a nice tan head and good visible carbonation. Aroma is caramel malt, earth, and some hop tanginess. Flavor is barley, malt, and some grapefruit notes. As it warmed the tartness faded a bit and the malt moved to the front along with some spice. Interesting Irish with the hop profile.

Apr 11, 2008 HogTownHarrys bottle, shared with me :-) An odd take (to me) on an Irish Ale: Amber brown colour, small grey head which was easily enlarged by swirling. Slight malt aroma with some beer-earth there too, some sweetness. Flavour: Sweet nut like flavour with some spice too, quite nice actually, but to me, not an Irish Ale
