Commercial Description:
When the Irish brew their stouts, the roasted flavor and dark color comes from unmalted roasted barley. When roasted barley is used in a lighter colored beer, the result is a color best described as somewhat red. At least it’s not green! O.G. 1053 I.B.U. 25

Draft. Good lacing with small soapy head. Light amber color. Weal aroma. Very light malt with almost no hops. Very understated taste.

Light red color with a little head. Good body. Sweet caramel in the aroma and in the taste. Somewhat weak taste wise. Malts in there as well not too much hops.

Draft at Nashville. Pours and beautiful amber with an ivory head. Faint aroma of caramel. Flavor of caramel, wet grains, and toasted malt with no real discernible hop bitterness (just enough to keep it in balance.) Strong vegetal notes on the finish. Disappointing.

On tap, Nashville brewpub. Comes topped by an initially fluffy white head. Murky rose orange more than intense red. Malty all the way through: bready and fatty at first; middle of corn and DME; end gets a bit roasty and contains a distinct flavor of popcorn hulls. A light fruit sweetness lingers a little bit on the finish. In all honesty, I enjoy Killians more.
