Dundee Irish Red Lager: Review

5.5% abv
12 oz bottle
Dundee Brewing Co.
Rochester, New York, USA
My Strength Rating: 3

Appearance: Amber in color with eggshell colored head.  Nice white lacing on the glass. 

Aroma: yeast and grains

Flavors: crisp lager like taste, bready, a touch of floral hops, and a pecan like nutty note. 

Mouthfeel: crisp, clean, mild, and …  good carbonation to wash away that one flavor that the beer has – okay I gave it three flavors – so, it is an overachieving Irish Beer. 

This might be good with some bangers and mash.  Till then, I’ll give it a C-.  It is drinkable just rather plain.

This is like drinking Killian’s but, without the headache.
