On tap @ Thomas Moore, Dublin. Marrón translucida, de tinte rojizo. Buena espuma duradera. Aroma escaso ligeramente malteado. Suave en boca, ligera un tanto aguada. Sabor tirando a dulce, malta, notas de caramelo. Bastante bebible. Pero peor que otras muchas red ale.

On tap at Fitzgerald’s Pub, Dublin. Dorada limpia de abundante espuma blanca de excelente duracion. Aroma escaso, cereal, levadura. En boca es algo punzante de gas, ligera de cuerpo y con sabor balanceado, malteada principalmente pero con contrapunto especiado.

Roasted coffee and malt with chocolate and a light spiciness on the nose. The creamy off white head is unmistakable, over a deep brown body. The highlight of the taste is its simple balance. Roasted coffee and malt, semi-sweet chocolate, a touch of molasses, some cream. The body is medium and relatively clean. Nice density and extension to the taste for a 4.2 abv offering
