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.

Aromas are straightforward dark malt, with some toffee, a little caramel and a whiff of hops. Flavors are bittersweet with more carbonation than I expected. Mild lingering bitter in the finish. Not bad.
