Bottle. Pours clear light amber with airy off-white. Clear, sweet aroma of malt can caramel, with fruity notes. Bitter, hoppy flavour, with notes of raw malt and yeast. Bitter and sourish finish. Bitter aftertaste of lemon rind and metal. Unbalanced. Not my favourite beer, but, honestly, I am not a great fan of Irish Pale Ale.

Bottle, 4.3%. Slightly buttery and spicy aroma. Hazy greyish golden colour. Small frothy white head. The flavour is OK citric hoppy and a little spicy. But there is still a bit of unclean butter or something. OK drinkable, but not that good.

Golden with a small head. This is an IPA with a tasty grain and a fruity nose.

Had it a few times since the last rates and the beer has deteriorated...cereal bit buttery pale malts, dab of bitter hops, almost no citrus, over fizzy...tbh not a lot better than macro offerings...down to 2.8

Well it was tasting better and fresher here, some zesty citrus hops, but also a lot of caramel malt. In the finish a pleasent cereal caramel butter biscuit flavour comes though quite strongly and stays in the fairly long linger. Up to from 3.1 to 3.3

Blonde, clear, frothy white head
Aroma - soft pale malts, touch of sweet light caramel, vague hint of fruit, little on the nose
Taste - Light pale caramel malts, touch of soft cereals, mellow bitter hops, touch of zesty hop
Palate - Soft carb, medium body, texture is a bit creamy, soft bitter palate, little tangy. Finish as main flavour, light cereal linger, light tangy bitter
Overall - Refreshing, not too hoppy, some nice sweet pale malt in there, ok

Bottle: Deep golden, firm creamy white head, delicate fruity-toasty nose with some well hidden hops underneath; light to moderate bitter-sweet flavour, not really dry, light bodied, smooth MF; soft and lingering toasty-hoppy finish. Nice, but a bit thin…

Bottle. It’s a clear one, golden in color and with a small, off-white head. The aroma has the typical English maltyness, bready and lightly crackery, with some light citrusy and grassy hops. Some toffee hints in the flavor, with bready, crackery hints and some bitterness. Medium to thin on the palate, soft carbonation. Some bitterness in the finish. A boring one indeed, too much on the toffee and bread side for me, but at least it drinks easily. 130510

Dobre ale nie rewelacyjne jasne ale z Irlandii. Mala piana i kolor jasno bursztynowy, troche nut chmielowych. Ogolnie delikatne ale i nie ciezkie, w smaku zbyt malo wyraziste.
