| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 28, 2009 A decent Irish ale. Aroma was decent. Light roasted malt with just a hint of caramel and a light soapiness. Pour was a nice deep amber/near light brown with a 1 finger off white head. Taste was typical Irish ale...focusing on the toasted malt and light caramel with a thick wet malty aftertaste. Not bad. Earlier Rating: 3/17/2007 Total Score: 3.1 An interesting Irish ale. I’ve not had man of these but in a nut shell it tated like ginger ale. Light orange/amber pour with no head. Medium carbonation. Some fruity tones in the aftertaste.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Oct 29, 2008 Bottle. Pours a mahogany amber body with an off white head. Light malt, diactyl, apple with some fragrant floral hoppiness. Spiced with brown sugar. Overall it fell short of expectations. puggy211 (591), cordova, Tennessee, USA
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/20 | Sep 20, 2008 Light coppery amber w/ a medium lasting very light beige head. Caramel and yeasty, seems like English ale yeast aroma. Medium green apple & lightly toasty malt. Some floral hop. Flavor is well balanced, and definitely yeasty in the finish & aftertaste; malty up front w/ a caramel green apple flavor in the middle. It seems a bit thin up front in the flavor to me as most of the flavor is in the mid palate throught the aftertaste. Hints of diacetyl in the finish as well. Lighter medium body, smooth m/f, medium carbonation. Not a bad beer, but non distinct and middle of the road IMHO. DrDavid (957), Johnson, Vermont, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Sep 14, 2008 (Bottle). Lightly sweet aroma. Reddish amber with light tan head. Flavor is mild and watery, some sweet malt, very watery finish, with candy notes, like weak kool-aid. Body is very light. beerbill (1963), Laurel, New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 14, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pours a clear red with a moderate-large off-white head that completely disappeared before I had finished a quarter of the glass. Weak aroma of malt and a touch of brown sugar. The flavor is malt along with just a bit of unsweetened iced tea. Mild bitterness at the finish. A tad thin, but not watery. blankboy (3212), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear orange-amber with an average size diminishing off-white head. Mild aroma of caramel malt, sugary sweetness, fruit, grain and maybe some hops. Meh. Flavour’s pretty much the same with caramel malt, grain and fruit -- pretty watery, maybe some hops in the finish. Light bodied. Pretty boring stuff -- not for me. nick76 (2669), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jun 22, 2008 The aroma is papery with caramel malts, toasted bread, yeast, and light hops. The appearance is red brow with a decent looking head. The flavor is like the aroma with a malty-toasty finish. The palate is smooth but thin. Overall not that great but easy to drink.
