Jun 10, 2002 Semi-hazy dark copper. Foamy white edge head. Light carbonation. Aroma of sultry dark roasted chocolate malts. Very fresh. Crisp and bold with a healthy dark roasted malt base. Light to medium bodied. Dry nut skin aftertaste and underlying chocolate. Very clean and smooth tasting. Lightly bitter and earthy hop balance. Finishes mellower and deeply malted with hints of chocolate. A solid Irish style brew.

Mar 23, 2007 This beer was poured into a nice beer stein and didnt have tat much of a head to it. The smell is of hops and fruit and modertly potent. when you drink it you get the taste of malt and coffee but only a hint of coffee. still a good brew though definitly good for a spring beer. overall this beer has a good taste and does what it does best getting you drunk which in the end is the result that you ultimalty want.

Jun 29, 2002 Updated: Jan 11, 2004Irish ales are far from my favorite style, but this one is really good. Robust malt aroma and taste. Hops take a back-seat, but they balance this brew out great. So far this brewery has done no wrong in my book.

Mar 22, 2005 I’m assuming this is what I drank, listed as "Newport Storm Irish". On tap St. Patrick’s Day weekend at the Boston University Pub. Deliciousness. A more robust, mature taste than the regular Newport Storm, which I had the day before. I would definitely get this again. Tasted something like an amber though. In any event, a keeper.

Aug 14, 2002 The beer pours a deep cloudy garnet, bordering on brown, the head is voluminous, beige and the lace in thick sheets. Nose is malt, nutty sweet, buttery. Front begins lightly malt sweet, the top is light, the finish is acidic, quite dry, nicely hopped and a quite decent drinking beer. Ranks #472 on my current 1000 beer master list.

May 22, 2005 Pours out amber/darker red with a small white head. Slighly hopped, not too sweet. I’m not really a fan of Irish Reds, but I could drink this on a regular basis easily.
