tap at Porterhouse in Dublin - Pours deep golden and has a caramel malt aroma. It tastes of lightly toasted caramel malt with minimal hops. It reminded me more of a marzen, though of course thatโ€™s a lager style, than a pale ale as it didnโ€™t seem to have much hops at all like others have described. Not bad.

on tap @ the bierhaus, cork. good color and aroma for a pale ale, and after having way too many lagers so far this week, a hoppy pale ale from one of the only microbreweries in ireland was just the thing. very refreshing and nice hop character, a little mild and needs more of an abv punch, but good beer that i will have to have one more of.

Cask. Poured a pale amber with a thin off-white head. Aroma had notes of citrus and pine hops. Flavor was hoppy for the most part. It began with the citrus hops and ended with the pine.

Draft. A golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma has notes of citrusy hops on a lightly malty back ground. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and citrusy hops, as well as light notes of butter, leading to a dry bitter finish.
