"A smooth, creamy ale." Introduced in 1994 as a 4.8% Irish Ale by Bass at Caffrey’s Ulster brewery, and promoted strongly with an advertising campaign of "strong words softly spoken". Interbrew took over in 2000, soften the recipe and attempted to catch the lager market, using a new promotion of "a storm brewing". Coors acquired the brand in 2002. Initially contract brewed by Interbrew for Coors at Ulster, the brand eventually moved to Coor’s Tower Brewery in Tadcaster.

500ml can. Pours amber, creamy white thick head, looks stunning. Aroma however is weak watered down caramel malts. Taste is exactly that, quite smooth, light to moderate body, no carbonation, semi-sweet with a mild bitterness. Nothing premium about this. Pretty flavourless but drinkable.
