Galway Hooker in bottles from Monday 14 years 11 months ago #31

Anyone know of any other Dublin off licenses with this? Would like to try today without going into town.

I quite liked it in bottle; maybe even more than on tap. (I know that's approaching blasphemy for some people.)

I won't use the dreaded "d" word but I did find that background "buttery" flavor quite nice. (I always do, though.)

The labels look really nice and the bit of shiny gold makes it look pretty classy.

Well done from where I sit, although everyone might not appreciate the bit of butter. (I'm ok with it and might even prefer it, but I'm weird like that.)

Got a couple of bottles there this evening in Bray,
very happy indeed, and even happier their in 500ml bottles!
The labels are so easy to remove, great job!!

Is that not a 22 degree diacetyl rest I see[/url:347wtpq1] before me?

My guess is they are bottled by Carlow (same type of bottle, easily removable labels).

Still the Hooker has now supplanted the O'Haras IPA as my favourite Irish Pale Ale. At least until Metalman start bottling...
