Commercial Description:
This authentic amber Irish ale is slow brewed with a blend of three malted barleys and finished with four varieties of hops. Then we dry-hopped in the lager tank to add a spicy note to warm your winter evenings. Expect this beer to be a beautiful copper-red, with a fruity ale body and a spiced hop finish.

Pours a dark amber brown with a nice lasting head. Aroma of some caramel, roast, chocolate, and some German styled hop presence. The flavor is light and sweet with caramel and chocolate, a slight vegetal pops through to me. Or something that was just a little seemingly off. More dark malts, a nice light spice from the hops and a light bitter/crisp finish. Interesting, but I don’t know if I am digging it all that much.

Large off-white head of fine bubbles. Settles slowly and leaves a thick doily of lacing down the glass. Light roasted malts and some dry bitterness. Some crusty bread also. Color is a nice mahagony brown. Flavor is lightly bitter with some spices and roasted grains. Pretty generic. Finishes bitter with a bit of tartness that is making my m outh salivate. Eh.

Clear dark red brown with a watery ivory white head and good rings of lacing. Smell is sweet bread. Freshly baked cinnamon bread flavor. Very nice, unique and drinkable. Medium to high carbonation. Smooth and has a solid interesting flavor.

Copper color. Smell of malt, spice, hops and fruit. Taste of hops, copper, malt and a splash of dark fruit.
