| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 19, 2007 Rogue Kells Irish Style Lager
22 oz bomber
Moderate pour in an English pint
Recent brewing, greened 03/07
Poured a clear gold with a large fizzy mostly diminishing head with fair lacing.
Smelt of moderate to strong cheesy sweaty yeast and moderate perfume hops and biscuit.
Taste was upfront moderate bittersweet biscuit and grassy hops followed by a moderate to strong doughy yeasty bitter moderate length finish.
Palate was light to medium bodied, effervescent, watery and lightly astringent.
Overall, a pretty interesting beer for St Patty’s. Nothing too fancy though. Just wee pleasant. Fightfire4beer (125), Virginia, USA

A little bitter with a hint of hops and a grassy aftertaste. Not much else going on. C jb (1034), Rochester, New York, USA
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Mar 18, 2007 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! 505 (271), Echo Park, California, USA
| 0.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/20 | Mar 17, 2007 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? ratman197 (3185), Arvada, Colorado, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Mar 17, 2007 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. Brewpot (21), West Burlington, Iowa, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Mar 17, 2007 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. JonnyC22 (164), Huntsville, Alabama, USA
| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Mar 17, 2007 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. rm0312 (36), Idaho, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 12, 2007 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.
