Can. Light haze on this gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, decent fine carbonation. Soft malts, nice light creamy sweetness. Hops bring a nice floral piney orangey citrus. Little orange peel and tangerine. The semi dry finish leaves a modest spicy bitter linger. Hangs together very well. Balanced, fresh, fruity and bitter. Good stuff.

Mother Kelly's. Keg. Opaque dark brown beer, small tan head. Palate is light and fairly crisp. Smooth mellow dark malts. Decent chocolate if quite cocoa and choc fudge. Salt? Little cream before a crisp finish. Amusing.
