thedm (5207) - Fort Wayne, USA - APR 29, 2015
This draft brew from the brewery poured a head of foamy fine to medium sized off-white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a uncarbonated transparent . The mild aroma was mild hop. The sharp crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish with a mellow hoppy aftertaste. The nice flavor contained notes of mild hops Irish red malt and breads. Delicious and one I would certainly like to have again.
