The nitro doesn’t really do it for me. I like the slight caramel malty tones and its an easy drinker but it doesn’t seem full enough to be an ale. Too thin for my likes. The overseas nitro beers seem fuller as this one lacked carbonation.

On tap at the BBW as part of the sampler billed as the McGinty’s Irish Ale. Pours a translucent ruby red amber with a medium creamy tan lacing head. Aroma of caramel, toasted malts and light hops. Flavor of caramel and more hop flavor than I would expect form this style. Kind of thin and this was served on nitro which I’m not a big fan of.

Listed as McGinty’s Irish ale/. Reddish color with a light malty aroma. Taste was malty-sweet with some caramel. Didn’t knock my socks off, but not bad.

From the tap at BBW. Deep red, ruby, wine colored body with little head. Light sweet malty caramel flavor that went down easily/smoothly.

On tap at the Bethlehem Brew Works Brew Pub. Poured a darker ruby reddish/copper color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas and tastes of caramel malts and light chocolate. Has a light to medium bitter finish.

5.06.05 On tap at Brew Works Under the name McThomas’s Irish Red, and 5.1% alcohol. Is this the same beer? Copper color, with a rich malt taste. Enjoyed it...would have taken another but I had two more beers to try out

Pours deep copper/rubyish with aroma of malt, some toffee, and some cabernet. Tastes caramel malty, with some cabernet hints at the finale.

On tap at brewpub. Deep amber in color. with little or no carbonation. Malty and sweet. Thin body. Palate is thin. Ok beer.
