Hawksfan17 (717), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 11, 2007 Pours dark red and has a sweet malty nose typical of red/irish ales. Tastes of dark malt and has a sour finish. It was quite nice. 1FastSTi (2551), Glendale, Wisconsin, USA Apr 5, 2006 Pours to a red hued brown body with a lasting creamy light beige head. Dense, sheet lacing. The aroma is light rye malt, subtle toffee, boring toasted malts. The palate is creamy, medium bodied, overly sticky. DavidP (1743), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Apr 4, 2006 Clear red deep body, not much head. Sweet caramel aroma. Dry crystal flavor underscored by bitter, stemmy hops. Some grapefruit rind in the finish but it’s mostly dry malt. Pretty underwhelming stuff. badgerben (3584), Blaine, Minnesota, USA Apr 18, 2005 Dark red color with a little head. Malty and slightly spice aroma. The taste is an unfortuante mix of good spices and grains versus the expired malts. It ends up falling in the bad column. robertsreality (2460), Minnesota, USA Apr 17, 2005 Brown Coloring with Smal White Head. Malt and Ginger Aroma. Light Ginger Notes on the Tongue...Bad Sweet Grains and Malt...Sweet and Dry Aftertaste. Interesting But Hard to Enjoy Thoroughly. StewardofGondor (1934), Washington Heights - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Mar 22, 2005 Nutty and malty. Not much carbonation. Smooth. Low bitterness. Somewhere in between a brown and an Irish ale.
