beaconstreet (810), Washington DC, USA Aug 22, 2006 Obviously darker, a little less taste than the light, but more heft. Frothy brown head. Lots of it actually.
Guinness4Duff (457), Tallahassee (and Poconos, PA), Florida, USA Aug 17, 2008 On tap at McSorley’s Ale House. Im assuming that this is the one referred to as the "light", got two mugs that were about 2/3 amber colored beer 1/3 cream colored head. Sweet grainy aroma with a taste that follows. Sweet caramel malt taste with a little bitterness, but these were brewed for pounding by the dozen, not for rating. daknole (644), Plantation, Florida, USA Aug 15, 2008 On tap at JFK. Amberish color, no head by the time it was served to me. Aroma is just grainy and malty. Flavor is boring and pretty lousy. Just give me a bass please. Nothing special here. graham515 (292), Austin, Texas, USA Aug 9, 2008 Pours straw gold into the glass with a nice white head. Aroma is sweet and corny. Taste is much the asme with plenty of sweet and not enough bitterness to counter. 00cobraR (935), Greensboro, North Carolina, USA Jul 16, 2008 nothing real special here. pours an amber color with a smaller head. aroma is malty and not much different that your standard irish ale. OVer all a solid beer. clingman71 (166), Centerville, Ohio, USA Jul 8, 2008 Draft @ Anchor Bar Buffalo, NY. This is a pretty standard Amber Ale. Pretty malty, no real hop presence. Not bad, but nothing special or unique either. I give it an overall 12 rating, slightly boosted, because it excelled at washing down the "Original" Buffalo Wings . While not a beer that I would care for under any other circumstances, the setting lends it to being a special brew.
