0.33L bottle. Small and stable head, clear unappealing brown colour, some malty aromas but nothing too spectacular, bitterness and nothing else in the mouth, no aftertaste. Nothing really irish about this beer.

Re-rate 11/17/11: Nitro-can sample at a tasting at Sar HaMashkaot Ramat Gan. Thanks zvikar. Dark brown to black-colored with a beige head. Roasty aromna with some chocolate and coffee with a bit of milk. Flavor is a bit sweetish, roasty and somewhat coffee-ish, with pleasant bitterness in the finish. Medium-bodied. 7/3/6/3/13=3.2
Draught. Black beer with a stable, small, creamy brown head. Roasty aroma with some coffee. Flavor is sweetish and malty, with roastiness and notes of coffee. Some roasty bitterness in the finish. Mouthfeel is quite watery but also has a creamy aspect. OK. 6/4/6/2/12=3

16 oz widget can for $1.99. Surprised I never tasted this before, always see it on the shelf. Big beautiful rolling pour, what a show. Choco aroma. Toasty chocolate hints on the taste buds. Very flat. Not too bitter. Lacking personality but has more than most flat beers. A little roasty. Perhaps just a little better than the typical widget can nitro beer. Not too much of a bitter finish, thankfully. I found out the way to drink these widget beers is to gulp it immediately after pouring when really cold, otherwise it turns into a watery drudge in the glass if you let it sit.

Bottle. Decent Irish red ale. Nothing spectacular, but when you’ve been conned into thinking that a certain beer is "Irish red" it’s a shock once you’ve had the real deal- well close enough to the Welsh equivalent. Amber color, with a sweet caramel aroma. Flavor is a malt flavor with a hint of hops and a pretty decent bitter finish.

Nitro Tin. Pasteurised hoppy aroma. Poured black with tan head, much lacing. Malty flavour with a little bitterness. Lasting espresso bitterseeet finish. This as a workaday stout, light enough to be a session stout.

Off the tap. Creamy head and a straight black color. Roasted chocolate aroma. Different from the other Irish stouts mostly by not being bitter at all, but rather being almost sweet with a bunch of chocolate taste. Really smooth as well. My favorite of the three most common Irish stouts.

Off the tap at some Irish bar. This had a creamy off-white head. Dark stout body. Roasty aroma of course. Roasty malts with a little bit of bitterness. Tiny coffee flavor. Mostly just dry and creamy. More or less Guinness or on par with it at least.

Nitro can. Typical nitro draught pour. Light toasted malt aroma. Perhaps a touch of smoke. Very dark brown color with ruby tint at the edges (takes a strong light). Good tan head. A bit thinner than medium bodied. Creamy nitrogenation. The flavor is burnt toast, but in a smooth way, and there is some definite bitter along the edges of the tongue. I vote for some hop, but it could be the burnt aspect. Smooth and good. A soothing stout.
