Apr 29, 2005 Draft sampler. Robust red malts, more than I’ve found in other "Irish Reds." Deep copper color, thin head. The hops are just a background bitterness here, while malts come in nicely, Just a touch of astringency for contrast make this a beer to reckon with. Also a nice fruity snip at the end.

Dec 20, 2004 Dark amber coloring with a very small head. The aroma is very malty with grass and some fresh cut wood. Pleasant spring time aroma. The taste starts out like toast with a sugary syrup backing it up. The finish is dry and oaky. This is a nice smooth, session style ale. Thanks BBB63.

Dec 19, 2004 deep red w/ thin white head, hints of grass and something a little spicy in the scent, the palate was smooth & thin and lightly carbonated. The flavor was light crisp and hoppy... not bad overall but nothing special.
Thanks to Mike

Feb 7, 2004 Pours a nice deep clear red/brown with a light but creamy off-white head. Somewhat toasty aroma with caramel and hops notes. I had a hard time pinning this down to a style based on the flavor- a combination of apple peel, other sweet dark fruits, and caramel malts, finishing with a touch of bitter hops. Medium body. A nice beer that challenges the traditional cereal "cheerios" flavor of most Irish Ales. Drank this out of a "Party Pig" pseudokeg.

Jan 27, 2004 Bottle. This beer formed a small sized ivory head with fine-medium sized bubbles that were mostly lasting. The body was transparent and carbonated with a reddish-brown hue. The nose was malty, caramel, some milk chocolate notes, fruity and grassy. The flavor was caramel and fruitiness. The mouthfeel was smooth and a bit dry. The texture was light-medium and the lacing was fair.
