Nov 22, 2009 Smells of barley and grain, very little head but I don’t think it’s intended to have much. Tastes very good, very thirst quenching - my glass disappeared quickly. A very good session beer.

Nov 21, 2009 Bottle. Poured a nice dark amber color with a nice off white head. Aroma of sweet malt, mild hops and some caramel. Taste is very drinkable with up front hops and sweet malt. Not bad

Nov 21, 2009 Draught. At Fionn MacCool’s. Deep clear copper, average off-white head. Somewhat sweet, vaguely floral and nutty aroma, a touch earthy. Tasted a bit syrupy, but not too sweet, the bitterness was just enough to make it pleasant. Average, slightly sticky mouthfeel, decent carbonation, a quick finish to the mostly-malt --- pretty solid with the fish and chips I was eating.

Nov 21, 2009 Pours a beautiful copper/amber. with a nice amber head. Taste is very smooth and is a very good option where available for a full flavor beer. Not highly hopped, easy to drink, a very good Irish Ale.

Nov 21, 2009 on tap at Millers Ale House, Alpharetta... not bad... a very good alternative to BMC. Arrived at the table in a pint glass with a deep red color throughout and a soft white head... mild sweet caramel malt aromas... medium body with big sweet malts with a touch of dark fruit. more caramel notes and a light bitterness. smooth creamy body throughout with a nice robust finish. Enjoyable.

Nov 19, 2009 On tap at the Abbott. Pours a clearish copper/brown with a small white head. Mild aroma of caramel malt with maybe a hint of fruit. Flavour is caramel malt with a fruity sweetness. A little watery. Nothing special.

Nov 14, 2009 A: Poured from a 440 mL can... head is average-sized and off-white, and diminished to 1/2-finger size or so. Body is a nice dark, ruby color and completely clear. Not many bubbles through the beer at all.
S: Aroma is of average malt, with hints of caramel sweetness coming through.
T: Nice flavor that starts sweet and ends sweet... the caramel is still here. While overall it’s quite a sweet beer, it definitely isn’t overwhelming or sickening.
M: Medium-to-full bodied with a very creamy texture, and soft carbonation.
D: May not be the Irish Red with the most personality available, but I found it pretty solid across the board, and quite easy to drink.

Nov 11, 2009 Nice dark rich amber color; Medium slightly creamy body; Aroma of sweet malt & spice; Flavor of lightly roasted sweet malt, caramel, and some dry fruit; Too bad it’s a little watery because it could have been really good – but it’s ok.
