626. McGuire’s Irish Pub – Irish Style Red Ale
It feels good I don’t have work tomorrow, do I can kick back and relax tonight. I’m staying home with the kids since they’re off school tomorrow. Tonight we just finished dinner and we’ve got the old school Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer on TV. I saw this beer peeking through in the beer fridge and remember finding it at the Walmart in Destin, FL when we were there on vacation at the end of September. Location:...
315. Molson Coors – Killian’s Irish Red Draft
If you’ve been reading this blog, you can tell I’ve been doing a ton of traveling for work lately – Nashville, San Jose, Miami, Dallas, etc. An hour or so ago I arrived in McAllen, Texas, and right next to our hotel is a Tony Roma’s. At least it was a place where we knew we could grab a steak and a beer. I was hoping the beer list would be more diverse, but I decided to go for this Killian’s Irish Red...
170. Walnut Brewery – St. James Irish Red Draft
Today we ended our day in Boulder, CO while working on something related to the wildfires in the area. We couldn’t find a hotel in the area, but thought we’d have dinner there before heading back toward Denver to our hotel. As always, I searched the GPS for the nearest brewpub and found the Walnut Brewery. The St. James Irish red was very clear and was obviously, red. The head was thin with some soapy bubbles and the...
66. Flatbranch Pub & Brewery – Irish Red Ale Cask
This is my sixth and final review of beers for the same Friday evening. It was a very long night, but it was great to catch up with my fraternity brothers at Flatbranch Pub and Brewery. After having their English Pale Ale and the Ed’s IPA, I noticed they were serving one of their beers from the cask, so I asked for whatever it was that was in the cask. It turned out it was their Irish Red Ale. Since it was pulled from the...
12. BJ’s Brewhouse McAllen, TX – Jeremiah Red Irish Strong Ale Draft
After enjoying the Pale Ale, I thought I’d try another beer down the list, so I went with the Jeremiah Red Irish Strong Ale. The menu says it’s “A silver medal winner in strong ales at the 1996 Great American Beer Festival. This Irish-style strong ale is brewed with a secret blend of five imported specialty malts. Not too hoppy in order to emphasize the complex malt flavor and fruity aroma.” Location: On tap...
8. Diageo – Smithwick’s Irish Ale Draft
I’m traveling for work right now, so this is the first draft beer I’ve reviewed. An Irish pub in the airport is pretty much a no brainer to pick up a beer when traveling. We hit the Tigin Irish Pub in the Dallas Fort Worth Airport, and along with my Smithwick’s, I had a pretty good steak sandwich. As you can tell, the Smithwick’s I had was brown in color – even though it said it was a red ale –...
