Call me crazy, but I couldn’t stand this beer. I am thinking maybe it was old or something, but it had an intolerable after taste and very little flavor.

Excellent ale. Best at a bar or bought 6 at a time. It gets a little skunky after sitting in the fridge for a few days.

UPDATED: DEC 20, 2007 This was a very old rating that needs updating. I will have to rerate this beer.

Saad (104) - Jacksonville, North Carolina, USA - MAY 5, 2001

One of the best made beers in the world. When it comes to making beer they just kick-butt in Ireland. This is just another example of their superior craftmanship.

Decent. Very nice malt taste comes through. My bottle was brewed by Heineken, which I found interesting. An ’Irish’ beer made in the Netherlands and drank in the U.S. Talk about a ’global’ beer.

A great smooth irish amber. Much better than pretty much any other american made amber or red
