Crowler from my parents.
This was poured into a mug.
The appearance was a rugged semi-dark amber color with a slight transparency about it. Mild carbonation was seen rising at a moderate pace. Just a film of a little white foamy head. Not much lace.
The aroma had some soft sweet bready malts, some toast, herbal and earthy hop qualities and some light roasted nuts at the end.
The flavor brought the malts forward to touch gracefully the herbal and earthy hop qualities and bring about the nuts slightly in there for a decent aftertaste. Finish was malty.
The palate was almost medium bodied sitting just a touch under with a good sessionability about it. Carbonation felt low but good. ABV felt fine.
Overall, worthy Irish red ale to come back to.
