Rogue Kells Irish Style Lager

Bottle. pours a gold color with a medium white head. Slightly hoppy, grassy aroma. A little bitter with a hint of hops and a grassy aftertaste. Not much else going on. C

1 day late for St. Pats. Looked old with a decent head. Faint corn aroma. Malty, corn-flavored stuff, not alot in the hops department. Not much to say here!

I don’t know if this bottle was bad, but it tasted like water. Not joking, I could not tell if it was just water or not. No aroma. Very pale, no carbonation. Flavor was about 1/100th that of Bud. What the fuck?

Bomber poured a clear golden yellow with a small lasting white head. Aromas of bread, straw and some fruitiness. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of cereal, light straw and a hint of citrus with a crisp clean finish.

Pours a pale straw color with a nice white head that doesn’t last long. Light hoppy aroma, nothing fancy. Light bodied with a crisp finish. A decent beer, but a disappointment. Perhaps Rogue Ales should stick to ales.

The Coors Light rep here gave us a couple of these for free at the bar. Good thing he did, because I definitely wouldn’t have bought it. Thin, dry...tasted like someone stirred it with their foot.

Poured from a bottle - bright amber, almost gold color with a moderate head that dissipated quickly. A good hop aroma with some fruit. A crisp feel with every sip. A lasting bitter finish with a little apple mixed in. Not Rogue’s best brew but still very good. Would mix well with a St. Patty’s day meal.

This one seemed to have that stale grassy malt feel I get with other Irish lagers but it has a relatively clean finish and dry finish to put it well above, say Killians. But I didn’t find this one that enjoyable.
