Nov 22, 2009 Cask Stillage from the Jug at the GABF, Colorado Convention Center 26/09/2009
Big malt aroma. Bronze coloured rich on the palate strong in alcohol and malty with a little dryness in a crisp and bitter finish.

Dec 10, 2008 12oz bottle. Brown amber color. Minimally carbonated, with a sweet doughy aroma. Some mild hop crispness, but overall the creamy maltiness dominates. Medium bodied and drinkable, but a little plain in my opinion. Caramel and amber malt shines through. A good beer, just not my favorite style.

May 10, 2009 Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz bottle into a pint glass.
Appearance: It has a deep dark amber colored body with good clarity. The head is small and fades out quickly leaving no lacing behind.
Smell: The aroma is light with some light hints of sweet caramel malts.
Taste/Mouth feel: The overall flavor has a mild sweet malty character with a touch of caramel and some light spicy/leafy hops for balance. The hops come in more towards the finish of this medium bodied brew. The mouth feel is well rounded, smooth with a light balance of carbonation.
Notes: Overall this is a nice average beer.

Feb 20, 2009 Clear copper appearance with a large, off white head and very good lacing. Muted aroma, mostly caramel malts. Gently hopped, toasted malt taste with a fairly short lived. Medium bodied and moderately carbonated mouthfeel that is smooth and easy to drink. Almost marzenesque.

Dec 1, 2008 This was my favorite of the sampler pack I had. It was dry like it promised and had a little bit of charatcher to it. It was the first to go down the hatch. Very nice easy drinking beer.

Oct 31, 2009 Had it on tap at upick6 in Erie P.A. I was surprised with the malty taste and mouth feel, almost like an American Brown, but was a good beer none the less. Some sweetness and a light nutty/hoppy finish, not quite a typical Irish, but drinking this I will go pick up a sixer of backdraft brown for sure.

Mar 8, 2009 another decent brew from hook and ladder. sweet malt, caramel, with a hint of hops in the after taste. A fine start to the Irish season.
