12oz bottle. Didn't love it - copper color, unique in flavor - enjoyable for a few sips but hard to drink more.

Capped 12 from Total Wine in Vacaville, CA. Pours clear amber orange with a transient white head. Aroma is sort of wheat and cherry. Med body. Flavor has cherry and bourbon. Some light oak astringency. Not dry. Not bitter. Not very tart. Pleasant tho.

Brewed in Ireland. Bottle from French Super U. Slight hazy amber. Caramel, bread crust, red currants, bitter leafy hops, endive, raspberries, toffee. Under medium sweet and bitter, also a bit sour. Solid medium bodied. Weird.

Bottled. Orange colour iwth a mediumsized sliightly off-white head, that leaves some lacing. Aroma is sweet caramel malts, some pine, resin, citrus and mild floral elements. Flavour is nectary, sweet fruity with some sweet malts and a nice bitter punch in the finish.
