Bottle. Pours a clear, amber body with a large, tan, foamy head. Aroma of sweet malt, toast, and a bit of biscuit. Thick, sticky malt flavor with more toast, some herbal hops and mild raisin. Medium body with light carbonation and a mild, bitter, clean finish. Some lingering toast. Enjoyable Irish ale.

Bottle. Nice copper pour with a large sudsy head. Sweet maltiness (Munich?) combines with noble hops (probably dry-hopped). Dry hoppy taste, sticky malt with light roast/toast and nuttiness. Very faint chocolate and spicy toffee. Hop smack toward the end, a touch of alcohol showing, very well balanced and delicious. Very nice, reminds of where Upland was headed with their Irish before the alcohol started to amp up.

Had this on tap at an Old Chicago during the season and in order to help complete a world beer tour...

Amber pour into tan foamy head that quickly dissipates into a ring of lacing as a small amount of carbonated bubbles rise from the bottom of the glass. Aroma of toasted caramel malt and flowery hops. Initial flavor of toasted malt with a slighly hoppy finish that quickly fades into malty yet buttery sweetness.
