Harp Lager from Guinness Ltd.
Rating: C+
So strange to drink a Euro Pale Lager from Ireland...
Pours somewhere between gold and honey with a big frothy white head that sticks around. Looks good, anyway.
Crisp, clean lagery aroma... almost nothing going on here.
Tastes a little hoppier than most euro pale lagers. Bitterness, malt, then bitterness again on the pallet. Finishes with a sharper bitter hops aftertaste than most.
Mouthfeel is dominated by carbonation - a good thing, because with less carbonation it'd be watery.
Overall, better than average in an unremarkable style. Go down good as a St. Paddy's Day leftover, but certainly not to be sought out.
Serving type: bottle
