Tap at Against the Grain, Dublin. Poured a clear dark brown with a long-lasting frothy light tan head. The aroma is roasty malt, creamy caramel. The flavour is moderate sweet super light sour with a roasty, light floral medicinal sweet malt, light tart cherry, light hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Bottle from O’Brien’s, Athlone [051216]
Black, tan head, large yeast particles
Aroma of roasted malts, soft burnt toast, light fruit
Taste of roasted malts, dark malts, dab of dark chocolate. Fairly rich malts, but expected a bit more flavour for the abv.
Palate - Soft carb, medium body, soft bitter roast, soft sweet. Finsh is quite dry, getting some very soft fruit notes now, roasted malt
Overall - Not keen on cherry, so good for me there is not much of it in here. OK. Bit underwhelming TBH
