chicodinero (4), USA does not count Feb 6, 2008 This beer comes on acidic (almost orange like) and finishes with a slight hoppy flavor. This is the first beer I poured down the sink. tomciccateri (467), Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA Dec 26, 2007 From a 12-ounce brown bottle, pours a yellowish amber with no head.Intense butterscotch aroma, light/medium body, butterscotch flavor dominates the malt. Too bad, looks like a bad batch.
extremeicon (105), Wichita, Kansas, USA Oct 3, 2007 Not sure what it looked like (sampled out of a bottle). Interestingly sweet, lightly caramel aroma. Very creamy mouthfeel. Flavor also sweet caramel with only a very slight hint of hops. Finish is more dry and malty. keith0718 (151), Olathe, Kansas, USA Sep 6, 2007 Cream? Tastes light, floral, and wheaty. It’s not repulsive, but I think the name "Irish Cream Ale" is misleading. Gregis (923), Shawnee, Kansas, USA Aug 26, 2007 Bottle poured into a pilsner glass. Pours a clear gold with an enormous frothy white head that takes it’s time diminishing. You need a little patience on this one, which is a tad annoying since this beer is intended to be enjoyed cold. Musty, lightly citric and almost dusty, the nose is a bit off-putting. Light and fairly thin, but with tongue coating carbonation that concludes with a sour and a bit metallic finish. The flavor is an interesting one. The first few sips were quite metallic, but that characteristic fades a bit with time and transforms into an effervescent, sour, pale malt front with a light citric backing. My first impression was that I didn’t care for it at all, but it became a little better with time. A brew very different from anything else that I’ve tried to date (granted this is my first cream ale). I’ve never seen a beer that generates a head so effortlessly, but overall, I’d have to say this isn’t something to go out of your way to acquire.
