Commercial Description:
The new Irish Cream Ale is a smooth, sweet and creamy brew with a light floral hop nose, malty middle and smooth finish. Poured from a pub faucet with nitrogen and CO2 the ale cascades in the Irish tradition and settles quickly to form the perfect head. Don't miss out on this brand new beer experience available now. Grain: Based Pale Ale 2-row malt. Caramel malt blend used for less than 20% of grain bill. Hops: Willamette, Hallertau. Relatively low bittering hop levels are used with a larger focus on late addition hops for a light yeast flavor. Additives: Non-fermentable lactose. Lactose is used to provide the creamy, sweet qualities and to aid in head retention when poured. O'Malley's Irish Cream Ale is ideally served between 42-50 degrees F through a pub faucet in much the same manner a properly served Guiness is poured.

Draft at Weston. Pours a golden body with a white head. Pours a soft fruity body with some light vanilla like cream. Caramel and butter scotch. Decent cream ale!

Pours budweiser gold with big, soapy bubbles and poor foam retention despite the addition of lactose (probably why I’ve never heard it used for that purpose). The nose is grainy, earthy and boring. This fizzy, unpleasantly bitter beer needs to go back to the drawing board. The taste is dusty, unbalanced and quite unenjoyable. Shame.

The brewery recently added a pasteurizer which should greatly improve consistency on the shelf. I reviewed a bottle from the brewery.

Bottle and at the brewery for this irish festival. Pours a yellow with a good head. Very very carbonated, with a dry finish and some hops.

Omalleys best beer. Pours a yellow color with a two finger head that goes quickly. Very smooth on the palate. Kind of watery taste. OK beer to drink when it’s hot outside. Not worth the price

Cloudy yellow overcarbonated mess of a beer. Flavor was bitter and sour. Infected bottles or batch as three of the remaining six pack later blew up in my climate controlled basement. Like everything else I have had from them AVOID

This beer comes on acidic (almost orange like) and finishes with a slight hoppy flavor. This is the first beer I poured down the sink.

From a 12-ounce brown bottle, pours a yellowish amber with no head.Intense butterscotch aroma, light/medium body, butterscotch flavor dominates the malt. Too bad, looks like a bad batch.
