Our version of the classic Pale Ale style is named in
tribute to County Tipperary, our Founder’s Father’s
Homeland. Sweetly sharp and smoothly bitter, this beer
straddles the line between what you want and what you need. It’s not a long way to Tipperary anymore! Slainté.

[1] Review by kinger from North Canton, OH, USA who has tried this beer once. (5/18/2007 9:30:00 PM)
"Dark orange-copper pour producing a HUGE frothy white head that stuck around and left a thick blanket of lacing...Nice! Mild grapefruit aroma with a hearty dose of malt, lemon and evergreen scents are easily noticed. Mild mouthfeel, nice and malty. Well hopped for an APA countered by the rich malt content. Flavors of citrus and pine kept the flavor right in line with the great aroma. This one seems stuck in limbo between an APA & IPA. There is a lingering bitterness, this one comes across as over-hopped for it's style although it's still a great beer."

"Wow a very unique brew. When i saw Pale ale I was expecting a brew that had a very little kick or uniqueness but that one was quite the contrary. It packed a good punch and poured dark amber brown with lots of carbonation. Had a very hoppy taste similar to an IPA. Worth a try.. Oh and its extremely carbonated as it took 30 mins and lots of sips to get it to pour the 22oz."

[3] Review by EyeChartBrew from CA, Liechtenstein who has tried this beer a couple times. (7/5/2005 7:10:59 PM)
"How is that I keep on forgetting about Moylan's? I mean, their IPA is great, their Double IPA is so good, and many of their beers are top-notch. So why do I pass buy such gems as their Pale Ale? A very good question, and something I should remember next time I'm grabbing bottles left and right at Keg & Bottle.
A bit of an overcarbonation problem at first, that I account more toward uneven handling and distribution than any specific fault with the beer itself. Pours nice, with a very pleasant aroma -- a bit differrent from many West Coast Pale Ales. In fact, right off the bat this reminds me of Highland Brewing Company's excellent Gaelic Ale, with it's complex ratio of malt-to-hops. Same deal here, IMO. This isn't your standard Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone, that's for sure.
Very satisfying, and something I plan on buying again soon. Recommended.

[4] Review by beerguy101 from Newark, CA, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (7/1/2005 8:09:18 PM)
"Medium gold color, medium head, spicy nose. Medium bodied pale ale. Malts are sweet, yet balanced with nice a hop spiciness. Flavor is full, the balance between malts and hops gives this beer a nice taste. There is a soft buttery undertone to the beer. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is very smooth and clean. Aftertaste is slightly bitter"

[5] Review by Vac from San Diego, California, USA who has tried this beer once. (6/17/2005 11:54:15 AM)
"Pours with an orange-amber body topped by a thin head with some lacing. The aroma is slightly sweet and grapefruity with nice hop notes and a bit of pine. The flavor is slightly sweet and malty to start with a slight citrus note and a piney bitter finish. Medium bodied smooth and a touch dry."
