Had on tap. I would argue this is more like an EPA than a APA, but I digress. The mouthfeel is surprisingly thin considering the decent hop aromas. The taste is also more bread and caramel forward than expected after the decently hoppy nose. Overall pedestrian pale ale

Poured from 500ml bottle. Pours red amber with a thin white head that lasts. Aroma is very fruity and caramel sweet. Taste is sweet and caramel with some flowery notes. Mouthfeel is okay not the best finish. Overall a decent pale ale, but not remarkable.

Rusty bronze with pitted sandstone head. 3.75
Sweet grain, a bit of soap, and melon hops. 3.75
Sour caramel and overripe peaches then some very spicy hops on top of flowers and pine needle. 3.75
Perfumed end and tart musty lemon linger.
Medium, round, smooth. 3.5
There’s the new Irish breweries that do a pale ale better and the ones that do a stout better. I hope for their sake this is the latter. This is flaccid, too full, tart where it should be bright, and has no snap in the finish. More English bitter than APA, with “a traditional hop and one of the new hop breeds” which I’d say are EKG and Cascade if I had to guess, though there are enough fruity hints for it to be light doses of something NZ like Nelson. But hops still limit themselves to an oily, sandalwood-type perfume which, sitting oddly with some buttery (diacetyl?) malts, put me in the mind of a 100 anonymous small local English breweries. Or Galway Hooker.
The amber has lager malt and “three new world hops” maybe this brewery still has a trick up their sleeve somewhere. 3.5
