On tap at Cardinal, as Whiplash Bowsie Nitro Brown Ale. Deep reddish brown colour, creamy beige head. Nice aroma of brown malts, caramel and brown bread. Smooth mouthfeel. Fairly nice and smooth flavour, not very sweet, brown malts, lightly roasted malts, brown bread.

On nitro at Underdog, Dublin
Chestnut under nitro cream; nuts with a hint of cherry skins on the nose; carob, some toast, a toffee-vanilla hit then oily bitter linger; nitro creamy body.

Definitely a brown - brown malts more than any chocolate. But there’s a rancid peanut end that comes, I suspect, from the nitro - needs some fizz to lift it. Sessionable, but could be better.

Second tasting, Christmas holidays, 2022:
On nitro at Fidelity, Dublin.
Garnet brown with a tan collar; walnut bread nose; hazelnut whip, Brandt rusks, bran flakes, tobacco, leaf; creamy, light, dry.

Mouthfeel and flavour profile combine for a praline mouse effect. That’s not all a good thing: nitro is muting the depth of a good brown. Not so characterful, but it’s also not that sweet, so it evens out to drinkable.

Makes a better nitro sessioner than Slow Life, ironically.
