[Cask at Reading Beer Festival] Deep amber with a moderate off-white head. Caramel with a restrained earthy bitterness, lots of summer flowers and a growing hint of ribena. Really well balanced, genteel and tasty - unlike most Irish style ales the toffee is not overdone.

Cask-conditioned at the Three Tuns, Bristol 7/10/2012. Copper in colour, with a decent, off-white head. Aroma of tangerines, berry fruits, pine and caramel with some floral hops. Flavour started sweet, with more fruits, solid malts and a lingering, dryish finish. Very good.
