RHG, we'll have pleny of these at the Beers. It's gets better the more you drink First one was a bit of a suprise but then the taste gains on you.
Who loved the first Guinness they ever tasted?

Not knocking the drink or your mini review Biko,dont take it the wrong way.

I was just highlighting the fact that if it gets you drunk ,it will interest anyone.

I for one didn't like it...sorry ..too sweet and Malty for me...Tasted very much like an English bitter..
And for the record I loved my first guinneas

but I'm delighted to see new beer and especially a Galway one...long may it continue..now bring out a wheat beer and a honey ale..mmmm can't get enough of the Honey ales

I'm mystified as to how it tastes "Smokey"....biko I think maybe somebody was using your pint as an ashtry when you weren't looking

Ah jaysus there'd be more in the glass after she took a sip as when she picked it up!

Strong after-taste. Needs an accompaniment of pizza, pretzels or suicide by kitten.
I don't like Chimay's or trappist beers. They taste like arse.

yeah a bit too much of a after taste.
somewhere between a pint of warm guinness and a carlsberg.

don't get me wrong it's not that bad but you'd want to have a few in ya to drink it with ease

Yeah, I said similarly "guinness mixed with bud".
Myself and the brother had a pint of it last night, neither of us could see any bubbles coming up from the bottom of the glass.
Perhaps the glasses were too clean.

i think it has a bit of a cloudy look about it which seems common enough with Pale Ales.
