Enjoyed at home on a very rainy day in late February. This is just meh. Like a more malty red ale but also tastes cask conditioned...not much carbonation. Maybe this would be better on tap, not really good when from a can.

Taster at Standard Market. My last chance to come here for a luncheon tray before I start a job up in Northbrook.,And I am surprised to find it’s my first Begyle rating, unless there was a collab from earlier. So this fits nicely in the profile of much-abused "Irish Red Ale." A clean, faint nose with just a slight amount of esters. Ruddy amber color with a thin fizzy head. taste is good and strong on the spiciness of a caramel roast malt, deeper than, say a pale ale. Full malt taste with what seems to me (and I have proven absolutely no expertise) to be an English hop, perhaps with Centennial finish. Just a slight, but fully present, note of peat makes this a great finish.
