Bottle from Daly’s Drinks, Boyle [261215]
Orange amber, very hazy, frothy fluffy white head
Aroma of sweet citrus fruits, orange, apricot, sweet peach, lots of fruitiness, very good aroma
Taste of sweet peach, sweet citrus fruits, bitter zest hops, some sweet caramel malts, bitter orange zest
Palate - High to medium carb, needed swirling to get rid of excess carb, medium body, sweet malts, rather bitter, drinkable for abv. Finish as main flavour, slightly dry, sweet orange malts, bitter zest
Overall - Lots of fruits in here. It’s over carbonated and the malts a bit heavy, but it’s the best beer I’ve tried from this brewery so far

Bottle from O’Brien’s, Athlone [211215]
Black, big frothy tan head
Aroma of coffee grouds, big roasted coffee, fresh espresso, nothing else
Taste of good quality espresso roast, some dark sweet malts underneath, simple flavour
Palate - Soft carb, medium to light body, seems rather thin, soft sweet, bitterness from coffee roast. Finish as main flavour
Overall - Good quality fresh coffee flavour in this but underlying malts seem thin. Not enough malt to back up the coffee and needs more body. Rather one dimensional

Taste of fruity malts, more caramel as it warms up, tropical fruit, grapefruit, citrus hops, fairly hoppy, some nice fruit in there, not overly malty

Overall - One of the better beers from this brewery so far I’ve tried
