A voluptuous traditional Irish Red Ale, this is a rewarding drink that makes real fans of many of those who, trying it for the first time, are taken by its unique and individual strength of flavour. It is a superb example of a uniquely Irish brewing style which blends the dry smokiness of Irish stout with the warmth of a bitter ale - and what a colour!

Cask-conditioned at the Lloyds No 1, Bristol 18/11/09. Reddish-amber with a slight white head. Malty aroma, with a hint of earthy roastiness. Flavour had some sweetish malts, nuttiness and a dry finish. Good.

Cask handpull at The Rake. Chestnut, thin beige head. Malty but pretty good should be as it’s a read ale, some sweetness, but not too much. Pretty good.

Cask at Charlie’s Bar, Copenhagen. A deep red beer with a light tan head. The aroma has very fruity, combined with some re berries , and a bit of malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of toffee and bread hitting early, then comes notes of berries and some fruit, on a malty back ground, leading to a quite bitter finish. The mouthfeel is smooth.
