3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20Pours like liquid reddish honey with a beautiful nitrogenated creamy head. Very mild body but very nice texture. Mildly sweet and roasty. Easy and enjoyable to drink.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Appearance: Pours a lovely ruby red with that wonderful cascading action thanks to the nitrogen bubbles. Creamy thick head that lasts for quite a long time, and a reasonable amount of lacing down the glass.
Aroma: A collection of sweet malt, caramel, and some faint hops. Nothing to get excited about, but nothing ’wrong’.
Taste: Some light toast, pale malt, and a bit of nuttiness. There is some bitterness, but it is kept in check. Quite simple and clean, and a little sweet.
Mouthfeel: A smooth, velvety, creamy body with that stereotypical nitrogen carbonation. Trying to read through the layers of cream, it does have a reasonably dry finish, and I think the body has been left thin so that it isn’t overly heavy when combined with the nitrogen.
Overall: A nice beer, one that highlights subtle malt and nut flavours, and could be likened to a lighter, less roasty Guinness (in a good way). It is not as complex as I would have hoped, but is ahead of a lot of other ’macro’ beers out there. Definitely relies on the nitrogen carbonation to stand out, but worth trying anyway.

Head: off-white, big, frothy, avg. retention. Colour: dirty amber-brown, clear.

Draught. This is a pretty bad Irish ale that lacks depth and flavor.
