I asked for a pint of the craic and the bartender told me they were out and told me about this. Here follows.
A - Dark brown with a small off white head
S - Dominated by cinnamon and clove. Very strong but the bartender did mention this. Alright if you were warned but yeah, very strong.
T - Again the spice of the cinnamon and clove comes through but some grassy hop notes and dark malts are there too.
M - A little bit light given it's marketed as a "winter warmer".
D - A pint of this before you brave the streets of a cold winters night and you'll be alright. I think I'd still prefer a pint of dry, roasty stout though.
