Source: 12 oz bottle from Mount Juliet Beer Company.
Glass: Kona 10 oz Pilsener.
Appearance: Medium amber pour with a one finger off white head.
Aroma: Very clean with a faint hint of flowers.
Flavor: Extremely clean flavor, with subtle fruit coming through.
Palate: Medium/light body with solid carbonation.
Overall: Not a bad beer. I was expecting something much worse, but this was a pleasant surprise. Wouldn’t buy a whole sixer of it, but not a drain pour.

Dec 7, 2009 I’ve been to the pub in Manhattan and remember that the only drink choices were the light or the dark (served two mugs at a time) and if you didn’t keep drinking they’d kick you out. Not exactly sure which of the two this would’ve been. Anyway... rating a 12oz bottle from Total Wine and More in Atlanta. Copper pour with a thin off-white head that leaves a ring. Grain and caramel malt aroma. Sweet toffee and butter taste. Metallic quality with a light floral bitterness. I think two at a time and non-stop probably made my memory of this far better than reality.

Dec 1, 2009 Bottle: The aroma is moderately sweet with caramel, diacetyl, and a mild grassiness. It pours a transparent amber with a small off-white head that diminishes quickly. It almost looks still after a few minutes if not for a few tiny bubbles around the edges of the glass. The flavor starts with some light caramel. The finish is lightly fruity and sweet with a hint of diacetyl and some mild grassy bitterness. Diacetyl increases significantly as it warms. Light bodied and thin with moderate carbonation.

Dec 1, 2009 I’m pretty McSorry I even picked this up to begin with. Brewed down at Miller in Milwaukee? I respect the heritage, but not allowing women to come into the bar until the 70’s? Yikes. Hopefully the crappy taste of this beer confirmed their heterosexuality. All in all, pretty close to crap. I’m sure the recipe they’re mass producing at Miller tastes nothing like the original anyway. Clear orange colour, large frothy head. The aroma is peaty, and the taste literally hurts my stomach. I sure as hell hope I got a bad bottle.

Nov 29, 2009 This wasn’t bad, and I think many are rating against the big brewery concept. Poured from the bottle to a orange-amber color, a thin off white head that dissipated quickly and little lacing. Aroma was pretty muted, but what was there was spicy fruit. Mouthfeel was tingly and medium bodied, with a taste of spices and slight fruited hops. Finish pleasant and full.
Would make a good session beer.

Oct 27, 2009 pours a medium caramel/ruby color with a thin light tan head. smells like a saranac beer...super malty and caramely with a faint grassiness. flavor has loads of caramel, straw, and mild earthy hops. mouthfeel is very thin and light with a malty finish that lingers too long! probably will never drink this again!

Oct 26, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours a clear amber color with an off white head that lasted a while and left good lacing. Aroma of caramel malt, faint grassy hops and grains. A nice caramel sweetness up front, with a slight hop bitterness. Creamy mouthfeel with moderate carbonation.

Sep 30, 2009 Draft, however, it was drawn from a Heineken tap marker. The bartender assured me it was Mcsorley’s Irish PA. Mushroom and yeast nose ringed with cherries. Clear rust colored with a thick off-white head, good lace. It tastes quite tart of barley malt and cherries. Soapy finish of grass and cherries. Drinkable and flavorful. No complaints.
