COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A hybrid beer based on the Irish & Scottish pale ale style and served under nitrogen pressure for a creamy flavour. This beer is brewed from pale crystal and chocolate malts with honey added to the kettle at the end of the boil.

Tawny pale brown body with a little white head. Honey is noticeable in the taste but not the aroma. Creamy taste from the nitro gives it an extra point or two, but I’ll deduct one for the sweetness which I didn’t like.

UPDATED: JUN 3, 2004 amber, with a thick creamy nitro head. dark honey and pineapple in aroma. sweet cloying honey and lightly kilned malt grainyness, bready yeast flavour with some drying bitterness.

First of all, this beer is much improved over the crap they were selling at NFOB 2003. honey and slight cidery notes. dark cola colour with creamy nitro head. honey and cascade hops dominant in the flavour. smooth, creamy nitro enhanced body, slightly drying. very nice sessional.

Clover honey aroma, flavour of tap water, nil body. Boring as an old mans anecdote.

Here it is everyone! The world's worst beer. Some dude forgot to clean his home brew bucket, it got real infected early on, so he threw some dettol in there. The joke's on me for buying it.

nfobo3. probably the worst beer of our aussie national beer festival. just tasted of generic mat extract and no frills honey. zero aroma. maybe we don't need a hybrid of irish and scottish pale ales. we were chucking our dregs in a cup all night and even though there was some hot chili eer and some dark beers in there, the dregs cup just tasted of the cheap honey in this. still drank it anyway

This is some seriously screwed up stuff. Sweet, slightly syruppy home brand honey, burnt sugar. Lots of chlorine in there aswell, not good at all.
