A fresh and zingy Pale Ale with a floral aroma. The biscuity malt flavours and citrus hops develop into a crisp dry finish.

On tap at Flanagans Irish Pub, Vienna. Shared with Charlie, Nick, Brad, Steve and Briggs. Clear golden. Lasting white head. Very fresh herbal hops with a touch of pines and raisin. Light bitterness. Light malts present. Light body, soft to moderate carbonation, light hoppy finish. Not bad.

Pours a clear deep gold colour with a small creamy off white head that settled to a thin layer. A sweet malty aroma, some buttery biscuit. A rich malty taste, again buttery biscuit, creamy in the mouth. A decent hop bitterness.

Tap at The Temple Bar, Dublin. Pours clear gold with a white head. Aroma seems floral. Med body or so. Flavor is floral and ryely malty. This is quite tasty. Reminds of the recent Guinness rye ale. Underrated IMHO.

Tap @ JW Sweetman, Dublin, shared with Niilstrong. Clear golden color, average sized off-white head. Smell and taste malts, some hops, slightly a buttery bitterness, but hops overpower that. Decent body and carbonation. . Nice.

Clear deep golden color with a nice off white head. Looks nice. Toffee dominant. Hoppy, fruity and herbal. Medium body and an ok carbonation. Tad sweet and an ok bitterness. Well I would prefer some more bitterness to match the toffee. Any way quite fresh and easy drinkable ale.

Flaska inköpt i Dublin av kära frun. Gyllengul vätska med lågt skum. Brödig doft. Ren och neutral beska. Hade jag blundat hade jag misstagit mig för en lager men det påstås att denna skall vara en APA. Oavsett vilket är den ren och fri från felsmaker, vilket belastar plussidan.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Tempo. Thanks Tom L. Clear golden. Aroma of stale and skunky hops. Rather dry flavor with bitter hops, skunky and stale. Light to medium-bodied.
