Reddish brown with a small head. toasty malt and slight astringency. Medium finish and body.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a deep red color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that fell off at a moderate pace. Light stringy lace.
The aroma had a slight roasty to smoky nose at first and then developed a little bit of dark chocolate gently blending with some nuts, and grassy hops.
The flavor seemed to do a good job of blending the prior mentioned aromas. Aftertaste was a quaint semi-sweet to roasty sort of balance. Finish was the same with a little bit of vanilla.
The palate was almost medium bodied but sat just a touch under and had a decent sessionability about it. Moderate carbonation. ABV felt good.
Overall, pretty nice Irish ale, different, but would be one I’d come back to.

Reddish amber ale with thin off-white head. Pleasant aroma of malt and butterscotch and vanilla. But in mouth, light bodied ale with little malt and too much diacetyl. unbalanced. Tap at brewpub.
