Tasting Notes and Review of Murphy's Red Beer

I don't drink a lot of beer out of cans. This Murphy's Red Beer is packaged by the pint and sold in packs of four cans. I assume that it is the same Irish Red listed on Murphy's website. Overall it is an enjoyable beer and I didn't notice any off flavors from the can.

Pros

Cons

Murphy's Red Beer, as the can's label reads, pours clear with a copper/amber body. It has a medium, rocky head. The aroma is sweet with some roasted notes to it. The flavor is also sweet but those roasted notes from the nose grow and become more complex on the tongue. There is just the faintest hint of hops at the end. This beer is wonderfully drinkable. It has enough complexity though I wish for just a little more hops as it comes dangerously close to being cloying.
