Commercial Description:
Full bodied and luxuriously smooth it is the combination of traditional stout hops, an extra pinch of roast barley and crystal clear Irish water that make O’Hara’s Celtic Stout a delicious stout with just enough malt sweetness to balance that discernible roast bite.

Poured watery black with a bubbly tan head. Aroma of chocolate. Good smell. Some flavor of chocolate but very thin and watery. Extremely easy to drink.

Draught at Flossmoor Station 8/23/08. Creamy nitro light tan head. A basic dry stout lacking much sweetness with a bitter roast coffee finish and some veggetable malt character. Finish lingers nicely. Creamy light palate.

Pours deep brown with a tan head. Light roasted aroma with caramel. Flavor is roasted, with coffee, earth, and a bit of smoke. Not bad.

Bottle. Pours a very dark brown with a frothy loose tan head. Has that stale ale aroma with a little lactic and caramel smell. Full bodied and a bit sweet with flavors of dark caramel malt with some light roast and cocoa notes. Satisfying bitter bite. Not bad but probably better on draught.

The pour was thick and creamy with a nice brown head that lasted quite a long time, the beer was black. Aroma was slightly sweet and and hints of coffee and caramel. The first sip was nice and roasty and smooth with almost no bitterness and a slight sourness. As the beer warms the bitterness begins to show through little by little until the end. There is very little hop character in this beer. An enjoyable beer as far as stouts go.
