COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our session beer, this ale is more on the malty side with a good hop balance to make it a smooth easy drinking beer. Brewed with 2-row Pale, 60 degree lovibond Caramel, Munich, and Chocolate malts. Hopped with liberty hops. Alcohol by volume: 5% to 5.5 %

Dark ruby appearance. Good irish malty aroma. There was malt presence in the taste but this gave way to a disgusting sourness. I’m wondering if this was a bad batch, or maybe they’re usiing water from the "sparkling Hudson" in brewing these beers. Thin body.

Cask. Very dissapointed. Barkeep pulled off a pitcher worth before serving me and it still tasted off. Deep red in color, very malty beer. Some off notes in aroma other than malt, flavor had sme cooked vegetable notes to it. This being the third beeer that I tried, it was actually the best...
