Commercial Description:
This strong Moylan's brew is what keeps those Irish eyes a smiling. Its deep amber radiance has been described by our brewer as the most visually enticing beer. This ale's rich malty flavor, full body, invigorating aroma, and expansive finish empower it to be extremely satisfying and repeatedly enjoyed. Great Western Two Row Pale Malt, De Wolf-Cosyns' Caravienne and Munich Malts are allied to provide the 1.070 beginning specific gravity, while Fuggle and Liberty hops balance this sweetness. A classic rich and malty ale from Ireland. Unlike most "want-to-be" red ales, Moylan's red has a rich caramel character balanced with a low hop profile.

22. Pours deep ruddy amber with a thin grayish film and maybe a smattering of lace. Light toasty and somewhat sweaty nose. Medium body, active carb, Toasty, nutty mid-palate. Not much happening here. I generally expect a heck of a lot more than this from Brendan Moylan. But, then, I’ve only really tried his famous stuff. Everybody has their fallback beers they sell to the general public. :-)

Dusty red in color with a small ring of head. Aromas are malty with a generic candy sugar sweetness. Surprisingly sweet on the palate, full but short mouthfeel. Sweet finish is also slick and wet. An odd, but drinkable, beer.

Pours a very dark opaque red with a small white head. Smells very malty. Taste is initially a little metallic, kind of sweet, good finish, better than a Killian’s. I like it, I would buy it again,

Sampled from bottle. Pours an redish-amber color, medium head. Toasted malty aroma. Flavor is a smooth, malt (slight sweetness). Finish is not too bitter.

On Draft. Murky, light amber color with pinkish hues. Ivory head. Some toasted malt aromas. Toasted cereal flavor with some slight fruit notes (strawberry and peach). Has an oatmeal-like mouth feel.

Poured an orangish-red with almost no head. While being very malty, this is not my favorite Moylans brew. However, it is the best Irish Red I’ve had. Some citrus bitter taste at the end.
