This Red stands out in this beer style category. The malt body is as impressive as a bock, albeit in a uniquely Irish way. With an incredibly smooth malt body complimented by caramel tones and perfectly balanced in bitterness, this Irish Red is much more complex than it’s mainstream rivals.

Nitro can. Clear red brown. Aroma is medium malt with some oxidized rust and a hint of berries. Pretty mild. Taste is huge flat malt with berry peels. Quite bland and a bit rusty. Meh.

Es gibt ein neues Nitro-Bier bon O'Hara in den österreichischen Supermärkten. Dies ist wie schon das Stout-Äquivalent von schönen feinen Stickstoff-Bläschen und Schaum durchzogen, die das Bier unglaublich weich🍦 und samtig machen 🐥. Das Red Ale 🟥 im Hintergrund ist nicht schlecht, aber auch nichts, was andere Brauer aus Irland nicht auch schaffen. Volle Punkte für die Cremigkeit für ein durchaus gutes, aber nicht herausragendes Bier.

50cl Blik van Landmarkt Ranzijn. Amberbruine kleur, vuilwitte nitro kraag. Ziet er top uit. Medium zoet, geconfijte vruchtjes, caramel, zacht-fruitig van smaak, licht moutig, meer caramel, hint van frambozensnoepjes, degelijk bitter. Lichte body. Prima bier.

Keg draught at Tønne, Leicester with Rune and Finn. Brownish red, clear with a small off-white head. Gentle resinous aroma, some malt roses. Gentle taste, quite malty, ruby chocolate. Light body with lively carbonation. Not as much personality as I'd have liked, but that's the style really. It's just about okay.

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours clear deep red with a dense beige head. The aroma is soft, bitter - sweet, toasty grain, dull red fruits, white bread jam sandwich, jam rolly polly, toasty grain and caramel. The taste is dry upfront, light tannin, bitter - sweet, toasty grain, earthy roast, grassy, metallic twang, touch jammy fruits and caramel with a bitter, drying finish. Average body and moderate, velvety carbonation. Has quite a weird bitter finish, almost acrid. Nitro definitely saves it.
