COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cold filtered and kegged. Also available bottled.
"At last an Irish Red Ale with a traditional hop flavour to balance the fruit character of the yeast and the luscious caramel flavour notes delivered from the malts used, as opposed to artificially added."
Ingedients: Pale, Crystal, Wheat and Chocolate Malts; Galena, Nugget and East Kent Golding hops.

11.2 ounce bottle from Bier 30. Pours a clear reddish color with a thick white head. A sweet nose of big toasted malts and caramel. A bit of a bitter and metallic bite in the flavor alongside caramel, light fruit and toast. Very nice. Loads of flavor for 4.4%.

Some sourness, metallic flavor and a bitter finish that lingers. Not a great beer however, every sip is a little less flavorsome than the one before. Brought as a gift from Dublin

On tap at the porterhouse central in Dublin. Irish red ale very drinkable but nothing special.

DrSilverworm (2962) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - JUL 11, 2012
Nice thin off-white head. Some bubbles on the side of the glass. Clear copper color. Little bits of lace. Toasty malt aroma. Light bitter taste. Lighter smooth carbonation. Drier finish. Good longer spicy aftertaste. A solid red, but I’m not really a fan of the style

Tap at Porterhouse Central Dublin. Pours a clear, amber red colour with a creamy, thick white head. Plenty of malt and some fruit in the aroma, the taste is malty with good dry bitter finish.

RichardGretton (4028) - Leicestershire, ENGLAND - JUN 21, 2012
Bottle. Reddish brown beer with a very strong and handsome foamy head. The aroma is malty and milky, and the flavour is fairly bitter with a malty and roasted nature. Overall a nice drinkable bitter beer with malty elements.

Koskela (145) - Marysville, California, USA - MAY 14, 2012
Nice red color but a bit hazy. Little head. Smells like they used a hint of chocolate malt. The taste is a nice sweet red ale taste with a touch of chocolate. As you continue to drink the taste grows on you. Its a light, medium bodied beer with mild hoppiness. Its not what i was expecting for an irish ale but good the same.
