On-tap at J.W. Sweetman, Dublin, Ireland

A: The beer is crystal clear dark red in color and has no visible carbonation. It poured with a quarter finger high off white head that quickly died down, leaving lacing on the surface and a collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Light aromas of sweet malts are present in the nose along with slight hints of tea leaves.
T: The taste is similar to the smell, but the malty flavors are a bit stronger and there are stronger notes of tea leaves. No sweetness is perceptible.
M: It feels a bit shy of being medium-bodied and is a little smooth on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is easy to drink and is a good representation of the style. There is a good balance between the flavors of malts and tea leaves.
