Feb 17, 2007 Thanks to black95tt for this beer. Poured a clear mahogany with a creamy off-white head. Aroma of citrusy orange hops, wheat bread, and powdered iced tea. Flavor is hoppy and toasty with notes of caramel and some honey and some breadiness, with a bit of iced tea character and a light citrus hoppiness. Very easy-drinking, leading to a pleasantly clean finish with just a bit of toasty toffee. Drinkable and refreshing, but clearly unlike any other Irish Ale I’ve had. But it’s FFF, so I didn’t expect something typical.

Feb 15, 2007 Another great FFF product. This beer hits you with that signature FFF taste but the taste doesn’t lingure as long as some of their more hoppy beers. The aroma is perhaps the best part. It tastes like a piney/citrusy hopped amber ale.

Feb 2, 2007 This basically tastes like somone mixed a Killian’s with a mega-hoppy IPA. Its a wierd combo, but after I got passed the shock it grew on me...it’s pretty darn good!

Feb 1, 2007 Funky, sour apple and pineapple aroma with some cherries. Brilliant red in color with a thick, white head that disappears. Lots of cherries and caramel malts in the flavorleads to a cloyngly sweet trip. The amarillos are just not enough - too much clementine, to balance this out. Sorry.

Jan 31, 2007 22oz, pours reddish brown with a perfect creamy head. Detected some hops, citrus, but this is more malty than anything... a bit of toffee, some vanilla. Overall, this is an awesome beer.

Jan 21, 2007 Beautiful ruby red in color with large creamy head and nice lacing. Strong fruit filled aroma and flavor. Malty and very smooth. Excellent

Jan 12, 2007 From the bottle, and many thanks to MrBendo, pours a hazy muddy red with a thick but disipating off-white head and some nice lacing. Aroma is immediately malty, with some cherry, some toffee, and just a faint hint of hops. Tastes thickly malty, with some sweet caramel notes balanced quickly by some bitter coffee flavors, as well as that earthy undertone that reds seem to share. As it warms, a smoothness develops and there is just a hint of alcohol in the aftertaste with some mild hoppiness. This is pretty damn good beer.
