6 oz tap pour into an American Tumbler at The Lucky Monk in South Barrington, IL.
A - The Irish Red is a hazy dark amber, almost a mahogany red-brown with beautiful nitro cascading. The head is a dense cream dollop with good retention and a little lace.
S - The aroma has a dry, roasted caramel and amber malt nose with a good floral hop balance. Not bad but nothing really stands out. Pretty one-dimensional.
T - A hint of roasted coffee comes out to my surprise. Lots of roasted amber malts. A drizzle of caramel comes out behind the well-balanced floral hops. A ton of toasted bread in the flavor.
M - Smooth texture from the nitro that goes down well. Classic hoppy dryness for an Irish Red. Mildly bitter.
D - The nitro really was a nice touch for this Irish Red. It makes it a easily sessionable red for St. Patty's Day.
