Draught at the Brewery in Dublin. A true Irish Red Ale from this brewpub, much better than mass-produced stuff. Malty, very fruity, slightly sweet aroma. Really good fruit flavor, with berries. A touch sweet, a bit of sour, a tuch earthy. Sweet-and-sour fruit finish. Very good.

Cask at GBBF 2009. Amber ith a small white head. Aroma of citrus, coriander, rosemary and thyme. Very spicy flavour too, as if there is added spice. It’s too dominating and a little cloying.

Draught at Maguire’s, Burgh Quay, Dublin. Attractive copper red with a dense cream head; weak fruity aroma; thin body with some sweet malty flavours and a sweet finish. Looks great - but it’s downhill from there on.

Draft at the brewpub. A pale golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt and light notes of straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and straw, plain, but with no flaws, leading to a bitter finish.
