L: Had this beer on-tap at Krikelkay, poured into a taster glass. Had reddish-brown / amber color and a cloudy consistency. There was a quarter inch of foamy, off white, somewhat long-lasting head. Good lacing.

S: A so-so aroma of roasted malt, caramel, hops, and a sugary quality.

T: Tasted of a moderate amount of caramel / toffee notes (not overdone), a light sugary quality (very fleeting), lots of roasted malt (the dominant flavor), and light hops. This is a pretty standard Irish red ale - quite straightforward. It's not bad, but certainly could've used a boost in the caramel / toffee area.

F: A fair amount of carbonation, with a light, smooth finish. Light- to medium-bodied.

O: A solid enough version of a simple style. Worth a try.
