Aug 3, 2006 Some floweriness and a bit of sweet malts in this thin, not very flavourful beer. Very average. Why do they sell them in these huge bombers...?

Nov 17, 2009 473mL can from an OCB mixed pack. Pours a pale red with a large white head. The aroma actually has some real Noble hops in there, nice, kind of metallic, wet dog, not much in the way of malts. Kind of smells bad to be honest. Flavour is much better though, peppery Noble hops upfront met with some nice roasty caramalts, like sugar crisp in the finish. Aftertaste has some nice crystal malt quality to it. The hoppiness plays off the malts well throughout. Everything integrates well, very good balance. By Trafalgar standards this is excellent and quite enjoyable. I might buy it every so often if it were sold individually.

May 16, 2007 Eye-pleasing chestnut appearance. Deep, dark aromas of heavy chocolate malt and molasses. Not as full-flavoured as expected, which actually plays to this beer’s advantage. Layers of chocolate, coffee and molasses are tastefully restrained, creating a beer that can either be quaffed or sipped, depending on the mood. A well-balanced brew.

Nov 14, 2006 Updated: Nov 16, 2006Bought at a London Ontario LCBO, just before local municipal elections in Ontario.
650ml bottle, 5% a/v
Very dark ruby colour with an offwhite head which dies off fast. Smells malty and sort of soapy with caramel tints. The taste is malty as expected, and definetly a caramel/brown sugar explosion. Aftertaste is much of the same. The beer goes down well except for a faint chemical note.
Not bad, and i wish all voting involved beers.
** Paddys Irish Red, just a diffrent name **
