Blind tasting @ home. Hazy rust orange appearance with a cream colored head. Spicy hops in the nose with toasted / caramel malts and a slight chemical / pesticide note. Moderate plus sweetness. Moderate bitterness. Peppermint / mint / spruce flavor. Spicy hops. Dull wood taste. Tastes like a hoppy red ale. Bleh.

Bomber poured into a shaker. Pours a hazy dark copper wuth a half finger if off-white head. Aroma of pine and citrus hops with a decent toffee backbone. Taste is mwdium bitter and light sweet. Pine and citrus with toffee. Medium bodied with a slick texture. Lively carbonation and a very long finish. Overall, very good. Another spiteful brew that i could drink every day.

12oz cheapo poured into a mini Duvel tulip. Pours a dark red with a strong medium head. Very very hazy. First THIS is NOT an Irish Ale, its a hoppy red, close to an imperial red. Aroma is hop heavy with some dusty vegetal malts. Some caramel maltiness coming out as well, I don’t like caramel and hops. Hops are a bit fruit punch, I could like the hops but the malts stink, muddle up the aroma and the flavor. The hop flavor is a bit strong while the caramel is a lot less. Low bitterness and not very well attenuated. A nicely fuller mouthfeel with soft carbonation, maybe the best part of the beer. First rater said it best "it is about as Irish as frosted Lucky Charms and that bar soap."
