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 lekker voor de structuur, ietwat minder voor de smaak. Wel mooie cream laag bovenop.

Bottle. Clear dark amber-red color with eggshell head. Aroma is caramel, some fresh red fruits. Taste is the same, sweetish but nice character. Oily mouthfeel with natural carbonation. Solid!

Mocno przypieczona skórka od chleba, słodowe, melanoidynowe, karmelowe. Barwa miedziana, piana gruba, sztywna, trwała i pięknie oblepia szkło. Goryczka zaznaczona, palona. Bardzo gładkie, trochę wodniste. Świetnie pijalne. Bdb.

Nitro Can. piana, a raczej krem jaki powstaje przypomina kremowki papieskie, ladny ten efekt w red ale lepiej widoczny niz w stoutach. Typowy czesto spotykany surowy, wytrawny, nieco wodnisty, czyli malo slodowy profil, ale jest ta fajna crenma, caly czas do konca, goryczka nie wyczuwalna specjalnie, ale w posmaku jest juz bardziej uchwytna, bardzo malo slodowe, fajne, lekko karmelowe, ciasteczka maslane. fajna deserowa sprawa.

0,5 can.Red can, with an interesting look. The color of the beer is initially cloudy red, then clears up, due to the nitro there is a nice half-finger of cream-colored foam on it. Roasted, coffee-like aroma. Despite the alcohol content, the beer is quite full-bodied and creamy. In addition to the basic coffee malt flavor, there is a bitter, hidden taste of a little dried fruit. The bitterness is more pronounced. Minimal carbonation. I expected worse, this is a good drinking beer!

Vörös doboz, érdekes kinézettel. A sör színe először zavaros vörös, majd kitisztul, a nitro miatt egy fél ujjnyi szép krémszínű hab van rajta. Pörkölt, kávés finom illat. A sör az alkoholfok ellenére elég testes, krémes. A kávés malátás alap íz mellett kesernyés, elbújtan még egy kis aszalt gyümölcsös íz is kön. A keserű határozottabb. minimális szénsavasság. Rosszabbra számítottam, jó kis ivósör ez!

Roodbruin bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is bitterzoet met een beetje rook. Verder een standaard bier.

Klare dunkelrote Farbe mit weißer Schaumkrone. Malziger, fruchtiger Geruch. Geschmacklich malzig, fruchtig, nussig. Mittlere Süße mit leichter Bitterkeit, mittlerer Körper mit spürbarer Kohlensäure.

Crystal clear red ale, thick off-white head. Smells malty and a little nutty. Flavour is also a little nutty with malt and some hops, a dash of caramel. A little watery in the finish but it's smooth as you'd expect from a nitro and no nastiness in the aftertaste so it's very drinkable.

Bevuta in bottiglia. Bella birra rosso scura. Non male anche se manca un po' di corpo.
