Shared tasting with Strykzone, Poured red to copper with a small tan head and light lacing Nose isf sweet caramel malts with some nuts and chocolate. Fairly rich body and smooth creamy mouthfeel. . Flavor is very tasty with lots of malt and some chocolate. Finish mover from sweet to lightly bitter. Very nice beer and easy to drink.

Medium beige, quickly dissipating head atop a clear copper body. Aroma is medium sweet, toasty, light caramel. Taste is medium sweet, caramel, toasty, faint grapefruit. Medium body. Very enjoyable beer.

Bottle. Smalllish off-white head with a mild yeasty or doughy type aroma. Great full mouthfeel with a light caramel sweetness. This beer is considerably more bitter however than any other Bayern beer Ive ever tasted. Nice grapefruit or citrus notes, good finish.

Pours clear ruby amber with a thick foamy beige head that leaves streaky lacing. Aroma of oats, toasted biscuity caramel malts. Taste is sweet with lots of toasted malts again and a slightly bitter burnt finish. Very good flavor, medium thick body, carbonation is a little high but it really gets that thick malty flavor to sink in. I was very surprised by this one and could drink it anytime.

Bottle courtesy of RiversideAK. Pours copper with a white head. Smells of caramel, roses, earthy, perfumey. Tastes spicy with lots of rosey hints and a nice fruity finish.

This one has a great fruity nose, with some toasted milquetoast bready notes. It is nicely roasty, sweet and toasty. Finish is very fresh and clean tasting, no bitter aftertaste. Really easy to drink. One of the better beers I have had from this brewery.

Sent by Hayduke and enjoyed together via facebook chat. This beer pours a mostly clear dark copper, almost red. My glass had a very short lived head but Ron’s warmed bottle poured with more. The nose was complex fruit and nuts. Nice and not at all "lager" like. The flavor was also quite pleasant. That nice complex fruit again, nuts, caramel, and some chocolate. A general sourness was tasted throughout. Maybe it was the name and hence psychological, but this had an authentic "irish" feel to it. Cool. Lagers often don’t deserve the bad name they get and this is an example. Nicely done.
