0,5 l on tap. Pours almost black with medium tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, some caramel and chocolate. Taste is medium sweet and just bitter enough. Finish is medium long, roasty and pleasantly bitter. Easy drinker and quite nice overall.

Tap @ Porka Eva. Murky coppery, smaller and creamy offwhite head. Mild bready, biscuity nose, some caramel and slight cellar. Taste starts gently sweet, follows with mild bitterness and finishes with rustic cellar feel, even slightly soury perhaps. Light. Not bad, but not really Irish-like.

Bottle. Don't understand the underwhelming reviews, I find this a lovely dark lager. Very classic in a way, but with a really lovely malt profile, mild bitterness, dry finish and light hop. Good stuff.
