Caffreys

Brewed by Tadcaster (MolsonCoors)
Style: Bitter
Tadcaster, England

Serve in English pint

Somewhat ordinary nitro-keg ale: brownish color, huge soapy head, thin body. Easy drinkable and forgettable.

UPDATED: AUG 21, 2003 An orange beer. A little watery. Tastes fruity and alittle metallic. Not much of a body, and not a beer i will remember for very long.

On tap at Weaver's Arms in Waterloo. Beautiful cascade, creamy body and mouthfeel. A bit of a fruity note. Vastly prefer it to Kilkenny.

From the taps of Angel and Crown in Covent Garden, London. Very reminicent of Guinness. I would call it a white chocolate version of Guinness. Thick, everlasting head. Very creamy. A tad fruity? Enjoyable to be sure.

Bland! Far too easy to knock back, nothing to make you remember a pint of Caffrey's. Basically, as easy as drinking milk, nothing at all to make it memorable, and on that note I rate it 5/20.

UPDATED: SEP 16, 2004 A beautiful pour from a nitro-keg. It takes forever to separate. When it does, it is a clear red-golden with a creamy nitro-infused head. The aroma is very mild but what you can smell could be politely described as not smelling exactly like vomit. Much better in terms of flavor. While still a bit mild for my tastes, it has a definite apricot note that I rather enjoy. As would be expected given the means of dispensation, it is very clean and smooth on the palate. It lacks a certain richness but it's not bad overall.

UPDATED: SEP 15, 2004 A very drinkable beer, plain however. A nice appearence when settling, due to the nitrogen. A bland beer, try something else.

UPDATED: AUG 8, 2004 Copper color. Head smooth like a dancefloor. Fruity flavor, banana(?) influences. Soft palate-feel.
