PorterPounder (2767), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Mar 30, 2008 Brandon, Fl. - Kingdom Liquors, 22 oz bomber. Dark copper pour, nice off-white head. Interesting and enjoyable aroma - hints of spices and mint. Solid flavor with hints of chocolate, nectarines, some Christmas spices - very complex and tasty. Lively mouthfeel - just the right amount of carbonation. One of the better ones from Dunedin - a brewer that seems to suffer from long shelf occupancy at times.
thill25 (165), Orlando, Florida, USA Jul 14, 2008 On tap at Mellow Mushroom served as Dropkick Murphy’s Erin Red ( e-mailed the brewer and it is in fact the same recipe as the Red Head Red). Poured light crimson w/ a fluffy off-white head..mostly lasting...soapy lacing. The aroma was toasted malts, florals, caramel. The flavor was bitter hops, caramel, and dough. Very smooth beer, moderate carbonation, and a lasting, dry, and bitter finish. Very tasty... fatti_bobatti (215), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Nov 28, 2007 ABC liquors, st petersberg fl. poured a deep amber with a giant creamy white foam. smell was very earthy and resin hops characteristics. Taste was similar to a lightly hoped english style ipa, lots of resin followed by a malt and yeast flavor. the bread and yeast gives way to a clean finish of citrus bittering hops. the mouth feel is thin and watery the biggest set back to this beer. goldtwins (3672), Nesconset, New York, USA Oct 4, 2007 Poured a slightly hazy reddish color with a medium sized beige head. The aroma was dusty with notes of paper. Sweet malt underneath. The flavor was mildly sweet with nutty and caramel notes. Dry finish with a lively carbonation. JoeMcPhee (3643), Jackson Heights, New York, USA Oct 4, 2007 Thanks to goldtwins for sharing this one. Deep red colour with a thin off white head. Aroma is a bit earthy and sweet. Some toasted malt and a bit of buttery character. Lightly leathery and dusty. Phenolic. Meh.
