Raaha (67), Michigan, USA Mar 8, 2003 Good beer, but the atmosphere was even better, I drank this at the john harvard brewhouse, in harvard square. Make the pilgramage. boto (1207), Granby, Connecticut, USA Oct 2, 2001 Very reminicent of Smithwick’s jjpm74 (2878), Connecticut, USA Apr 18, 2007 Shaker at the Manchester, CT location. Pours red with a creamy tan head. Smells of roses, caramel, and some chewy syrup with mellow orangy tinges. Tastes sweet with some nice spicy hints. Mouthfeel is syruppy with a sweet finish. goldtwins (3721), Nesconset, New York, USA Apr 18, 2007 Tap @ Lake Grove: This poured a mostly clear chestnut color. The aroma and flavor were pretty much the same. Decent toasty and caramel malt with some mild fruitiness to it. Mildly sweet on the flavor. Light peaty notes. Light to medium bodied. hopscotch (4433), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Feb 22, 2004 Murky, burnt orange ale. Beautiful lacing... lacework that actually looks like lace. Some vineous notes in the nose with hints of apple and sweat. Malty/fruity flavor as well with a little toffee thrown in for good measure. Medium-bodied with a silky mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Lengthy, bone-dry finish that leaves the mouth feeling parched. Pretty darned good Irish Ale!
