Commercial Description:
The Celtic formulation is based on an ancient recipe for Irish Brown Ale. Four different malts emphasize the grainy richness of this well-balanced ale. The flavour profile of Celtic is that of an easy drinking subtle ale with mild hopping. This every day ale compliments most meals and occasions.

Draught at BeerBistro - 2005 Golden Tap Awards. Dark ruby-brown with a small white head. Aroma of sweet & sour fruit, grain, some toffee. Soft mouthfeel, quite creamy. Unassuming but pleasant flavour - notes of mellow cocoa, caramel, some mild herbal hops. Could use a bit more "oomph", but generally not too bad.

Sweet hoppy aroma, copper, with a light creamy head. Hoppy, malty and orange flavour. Nice aftertaste of orange and hops, creamy. A nice Pale Ale.

Sampled at Beer Bistro Golden Tap Awards. Dark brown appearance. Sweet aroma and taste. Watery. Slightly bitter. Decent, better than expected, one of my higher rated Trafalgar beers for sure.

Green, vegetable hop aroma with sweet malt behind. You might like it. In flavour similar to Double Bock with more spicy feel and hops. Light touch of smoked malt as well. Smooth.
