Aug 31, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of vanilla, malt, and some light fruit. Palate is creamy, and lightly carbonated. Color is strawberry red. I must say, I did not care for this. I was expecting something rather unique, what I got was an over-sweet brew with little complexity. Any discernable flavors were washed out by a pervading sugar-artificial strawberry fruit flavor. Not recommended.

Jul 31, 2008 Pours a four finger cream head that fades quickly to a thin layer leaving some lace. Clear mahogany color. Light-medium carbonation and medium bodied. Malty nose. Flavor is like a neutral caramel not sweet not bitter. $1.80 for a 12oz bottle from Yankee Spirits South Attleboro, Ma.

Jul 29, 2008 Bottle. Pours an amber/brown with a light tan head. Aroma of sweet toasted malt. Flavor of bitter hops, burnt toast, an odd mustyness. Weak palate. Sort of like an ESB to me with all the toast flavors. Just ok, decent. Lots of sweet/burnt malt.

Jun 21, 2008 A great session Irish Red ale; slightly sweet, easy drinking, classic to the style. Another fine beer from Thomas Hooker.

Jun 6, 2008 Pours reddish-brown, darker color than a typical Irish Red. Light tan head hangs around. Smells sweet, malty. Tastes full with some nutty accents, sweet malt. Finishes clean and easy to drink.

May 31, 2008 Tasting at EABF. Deep red color with an off white head. Caramel malt flavor with some red fruit in there as well. English hops by nature are very muted for me and so it is in this one as well. Nice flavors but nothing too impressive or extraordinary.
