Pretty drinkable. Good flavor, but not much to it. Simple malt flavoring with some light bitterness. Brief, lightly bitter finish. Some crisp pilsener taste shows up as well. Slightly watery.

Highly carbonated for a Irish Red. I would of liked a heavier head and stronger malt flavor. It really held more of a american ale flavor than a Irish red. Not too bad to drink, but dont buy it if you are looking for a classic Irish Red.

Crystal clear amber with a light eggshell quickly fading head. Aroma of light toasted malts, light fruit and caramel. Taste is more of the same. Malted body with a mild peppery finish.

Caramel and toffee aroma, with some wheat and barley flavors. Pours a pretty amber color with decent sized head.

With a bronze body, it pours crisply with a fair amount of carbonation. Head is on the larger side, and dissipates slowly leaving a laced surface. Smells of caramel and toffee, and slight grain. Tastes mildly of barley, and very mildly of what the nose consists of. Very watery mouth feel. Small hoppy finish. Very forgetful and inoffensive.

Clear, carbonated reddish-copper with a yeasty-bubbly, off-white head. Subtle, fresh malty-sweet aroma with perhaps a hint of cherry. Clean, mild malty flavour with a touch of hoppy bitterness. Quick finish. Fairly characterless, but drinkable.

On tap @ Mulholland. This is an odd brew. Pours a deep orange amber. Smells reminiscent of banana bread. Highly carbonated, malty and sweet. Finishes lightly hopped, but dry. There is a lot going on here.
