Poured hazy amber orange with a thin dense off white head...smell is fruity and sweet roasty nuts...taste is disappointing...sour grain and cloying sweetness...

Another good beer from Great Lakes. This was a pretty good irish ale that had a nice hint of fruit to the aroma and taste.

2005 bottle from SkepticMAP, a very gracious trader! Deep orange-red. Small bubbles rise in vertical shafts from the sides of the glass, quite aggressively. Clear. Off-white head is quickly receding to ring. Smells of light raspberries, dry toast/toasted malt, hints of alcohol. Tastes of sweet and buttery malt, lots of waxy crayons. It’s either wax or baked dough I’m tasting. Medium body, much too dry and bready on the end and I just can’t shake the notion that I’m tasting ground up crayons. Low carbonation.

Bottle: Amber, mediocre foamy off-white head, sparce lacing, strong carbonation.   Grainy nose, subtle roasted malts.   Underlying sweet malt background, emergence of graininess half way through but subsides quickly.   Moderate mouthfeel and body.   Minor hop note & soft pale fruit at the finish.   Clean and smooth.   Seems more of an Amber than an Irish/Red Ale.   Thanks Matt D!

Bottle. Medium red amber with average rocky off-white head. Aroma was moderate toasted malt. Flavor and body was a medium with average bitter finish.

Copperish Coloring with Tan Head. Sweetly Distinct Malt, Caramel and Fruity Aroma. Creamy Mouthfeel. Carbonated. Nice Malt, Fruity and Light Roasts. Nice and Sweet. A Sweet and Dry Ending. Subtle but Seductively Tasty for an Irish Ale.

Dark amber, lite tan head. Sweet nose, like cream, with some grassy hops. Light flavor: grassy, slightly metallic, a bit watery.
