Lou18 (1353), West Paterson, New Jersey, USA Jul 26, 2005 Bottle pourd reddish brown. Theis is weak for a stout, really! I got nothing as far as typical smells and taste, except watered down. Why bother. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 24, 2005 Copper/ruby colored, with aroma of malt, toffee, some chocoff and almonds. More like a nut brown than a stout. Finishes smooth. This one is at the high end of the low end beers. dberger624 (1028), Phila, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 22, 2005 Draft at McSorleys in NYC. Definately not a stout. Little week on the color side for a black and tan. Nothing wrong with it. SLight malt tast. Nice and chuggable. brocker (99), Salina, Utah, USA Jan 13, 2005 Updated: Sep 24, 2006Pours a nice auburn color witth a good head.
Smells of roasted malt & hops.
Tastes as it smells. No surprises. Perfect carbonation.
A very smooth drink. Delicious.
On the back of the bottle they state - "...blends the rich heritage of olde New York with it’s legendary Irish spirit..."
Then I look at the bottom of the label and I read -
McSoreley’s Brewery,
Baltimore, MD
I don’t get it. Jine (889), Nutley, New Jersey, USA Jan 1, 2005 Another bottled B&T. Its only my personal opinion but if you are going to go with a bottled B&T, Yuengling is the way to go. This is not as good. Respek jimmack (1221), Nutley, New Jersey, USA Dec 14, 2004 Bottle. Dark brown/red color with a good size tan head. Very mild aroma of roasted malt. Flavor also was modest.
A bit of roasted malt, with little else I could detect. No real unpleasant flavors,
but not a lot of flavor period. A bit thin. smoosh (523), New Albany, Indiana, USA Sep 23, 2004 Bottle - aroma was actually fairly malty and sweet smelling. It looked almost like a dark amber or maybe a maibock. Quite drinkable, but difficult to rate because it is just an odd mixture rather than an actual style. Not too much flavor, but a fairly nice malty, sweet finish. Confusing. Spiesy (2333), Global Citizen, Greater London, England Jan 12, 2004 Draught, at McSorleys, New York. </br> Mahogany coloured body with a large fluffy beige head. Rather empty stuff though. The place was a riot the evening I was there. Full of kids playing drinking games and throwing beer at one another.
