Tap: Golden hue with a small head and spotty lace. The aroma has a grainy and slight butterscotch (Diacetyl) notes as well has some noble grassy and herbal hop vapours, earthy esters. The taste has a slight fruit twang, biscuit and slight crystal malt note, slightly buttery and papery. The mouth feel is lively but chalky and minerally as well. Well this is not the Diacetyl bomb that the Irish Ale was, I could do with less of it and a tad cleaner hop profile as well a crisper finish

Had a pint of this at the brewpub back in November. Poured golden to copper with a fluffy off-white head full of larger bubbles. Earthy hops on the nose. Taste was not terribly bitter, rather bland. Rather full bodied for such a low ABV beer. I’ll go for something else next time I’m there. This one, to me, wasn’t ready for prime time.
