Pours a hazy honey color from a can. Big pine/resin/citrus aroma with even a little mango. Similar flavor, big fruit juice, nice malt backbone, not terribly acidic. Well-balanced. Pretty good beer.

Pours mahogany tinged deep brown into an English pint. Mocha head with medium retention pancakes and recedes leaving spider lacing. Chocolate malt, lactose and espresso aromas. Medium bodied with sweet chocolate syrup upfront turning to cafe americano before the mild spicy mole finish.

Bomber: pours a huge gusher of a head with a pale hazy bidy. Aroma is some mint, plenty of tea, some citrus. Interesting for an IPL. The tea and mint are evident in the taste. Dry fruitiness. Some bitterness. Nice.

Draught at EBF, 2/3/17.
Dark zinfandel body has lighter/brighter red cherry tints and moderate amber hues on the edges. Head is small, falling fully. Clarity is medium.
Strong grape tannin in the nose with huge pepper notes, bready, odd malts and spoiled fruits giving way to big acetic notes that eventually just turn to straight vinegar.
Spoiled, vinegar, rotted fruit with a flimsy, watery body and lots of thinness. Strong vinegar lingers. Nope.

Poured into a mug, the appearance was a muddy dark red color with a thin layer of white foamy head that dissipated fairly quick. Stringy lace.
The aroma had toast, biscuits, caramel, black tea, orange marmalade and a touch of woodiness. Grassy hops send a decent balance.
The flavor had some semi-sweet maltiness playing with the grassy hops dryly. And then combines for the aftertaste. Malty smooth aftertaste and finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Low carbonation. ABV felt where it says it is.
Overall, good Irish red ale that I would have again.
