[1] Review by hantran from New Fairfield, CT, USA who has tried this beer many times. (8/4/2006 8:20:22 PM)
"This reveiw is the bottle, been along time since I've had the draft. Pours a twofinger had, nice and frothy which subsides fairly quickly leaving moderate lace. Has a nice transparent copper colored body. Nose is nice, a bit of yeast and a nice hoppy spice and maybe a touch of citrus, very inviting. Mouthfeel is slipery with a touch of tingle, medium bodied. Flavor is not a let down and seems just as promised by the nose. Fairly complex for this style of ale and very tasty. Hits a bit bitter, then goes very floral, turns tart goes sweet and ends ever so slightly bitter. Lots of nice flavors involved; orange, clove, pepper, and some toasted malts present, and a hint of carmel sugars. I used to frequent McSorley's in the East Village and frankly don't recall that draft being quite this subtle and flavorful. This is a very nice bottle of beer. (LATER EDIT) OK, I'm shocked, this is a Miller offering! Well done Miller, and it apparently had nothing to do with McSorley's in the East Village (one wonders if they at least paid McSorley's a price for the name.)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McSorley%27s_Old_Ale_House"

"Tried this om tap at Coleman's in Syracuse. Not bad at all. Very drinkable copper color with white head. Average carbonation, and taste. I paired well with the fish & chips I was having for lunch"

"This wasn't anything extra special, but all in all pretty good. This was a nice dark yellow color in the glass with some lacing around the edges that lingered a while. The taste was smooth and pretty enjoyable with a lunchtime."

"Good ale, but it's not real irish. Has a nice mouthfeel, truly one of a kind. Not a good beer to get wasted on."
