3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 ttoadee (153) - Austin, Texas, USA - MAR 7, 2012
Really nice soft amber color, frothy head to start (wheat assisted?). nice roasted grain aroma. Medium sweetness with a low hop bitterness. Sticks to the tongue ever so slightly as it passes. I think it has a larger alcohol profile than most Irish ales, but a really pleasant amber brew.

2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 dumontn (528) - CHICAGO, Illinois, USA - MAR 1, 2012
Pours a clear deep copper with a 1 finger head and ok retention. Aroma is toffee, red fruit, maris otter floor malt, sweet caramel. Taste is sweet biscuit, toasted bread, and some yeast-derived fruitiness. Body is light, low carbonation, very sweet yet with a somewhat balanced finish. Overall, not anything special.

12oz bottle from Pick’s poured into an English Pint. Pours a lightly cloudy dark amber with a half finger of off-white head. Aroma of light caramel and lots of bready malt. Taste is light bitter and light sweet. Bread and caramel with a little bit of hops in there. Medium bodied with a thin yet creamy texture. Lively carbonation and a long finish. Overall, very good. It’s worth getting the whole 6pack.

This is an good beer. Poured with a huge head. Aroma is of fruity soap and metal. I taste pine nuts and bread. This beer doesn’t do much for me.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Frank (2056) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - FEB 4, 2012
I’d call this an American amber, probably. It is a nice brown color w/ a long-lasting head of fine white bubbles. The nose is mostly toasty malts and a pleasingly firm malt bitterness in the finish. It’s a full bodied beer but not heavy and very drinkable. One of those brews that makes me wish it was a little lower alcohol so I could drink more of it.
