COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cold filtered and kegged. Also available bottled at 5.7% ABV.
"Made to arecipe originally brewed by Deasy’s of West Cork in the early 1900’s. This was Michael Collins’ favourite tipple - a stout like your gradfather used to drink. A fine fullsome stout, full in every way, a pungent aroma of late kettle hops. A generous quantity of roast grain for flavour, bitter with flaked barley producing that rich body."
Ingredients: Pale Malt, Roast Barley, Black Malt, Flaked Barley; Galena, Nugget and East Kent Goldings hops.

330ml bottle pours black in color with a light brown head that leaves some thin lacing on the glass. Aroma is roasted grains with hints of coffee and chocolate. Taste is a bold roasted grain, coffee and hop bitterness with a dark chocolate sweetness. Medium to heavy body with some decent carbonation. One of the best Irish stouts that I have sampled to date, well done.

The head is robust and creamy, body black. It smells roasty, coffee, a bit creamy. The taste is bitter, aromatic, coffe, roasty, maybe vegetable-bitter, Delicious and interesting. 15/12/13/13/-/13

Bottle from Beers of Europe into a Gouden Carolus glass. Black with a fair creamy brown head. Nice chocolate malt aroma with hops. Malty, hint of sweetness, and lovely rich roast after-taste. Very nice, excellent beer of its class.

dwyerpg (4092) - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA - APR 23, 2013
Some graininess and heft to the aroma. Looks great. The flavor is all over the place but it works. Thick roasty malt, some smoke and a quite a bit of sweet hops on the back end. Pairs perfectly with the macadamias I’m eating Excellent.

Jamedra (40) - CZECH REPUBLIC - APR 7, 2013
UPDATED: MAY 10, 2013 Láhev 330 ml. Po nalití příjemné aroma kávy s nádechem chmele. Pěna má velmi jemné bublinky a je nízká vzhledem ke stylu piva vypadá velmi přitažlivě a je lehce nahnědlé barvy. Barva samotného piva je temně černá a nepropouští světlo. Po prvním ochutnání hořkost piva která velmi připomíná silnou kávu, přehlušuje ostatní chutě v první chvíly ale po opadnutí nastává velmi příjemná chuť, sytého a tělnatého stoutu přesně tak jak to má člověk rád. Pitelnost je nižší než třeba u Guinnesse.

Bottle: Very dark amber coloured, ruby spots detectable,mid-sized loose tanned head, dried dark fruits, roasted malt, ashes and freshly ground coffee in the bitter nose; solid dry bitter flavour, barely medium bodied; heavily lingering bone-dry coffeeish and bitter finish. Wow, what a Stout…
