Your host is Jeff from McSorleys. Get your St. Patricks day celebration started with McSorleys. Jeff brought the Black Lager and Pale ale to taste. Pick up one of each for the weekend and you've got the fixins for Black and Tans as you celebrate the Irish in all of us on March 17th!
McSorley’s Irish Black Lager $8.99/6pb
Deep brown with some purple highlights topped by a frothy off-white head. The aroma has notes of debittered black, caramel, roast, and bready malts with a dash of pipe tobacco and star anise. Almost no hop character to be found. The taste is smooth refined malts with a slight grassy herbal continental hop finish. Nice acidity to balance the malts. The mouth feel was what was expected. smooth and very easy to drink.
McSorley’s Irish Pale Ale $8.99/6pb
At McSorley’s ale is well. McSorley’s Irish Pale Ale is from the old house at home. Established in 1854 in NYC and brewed by McSorley’s Brewery in Wilks-Barre, PA. Brewed in the tradition of the historic walls of McSorley’s Old Ale House. It took 116 years, the pressure of public opinion and ultimately the authority of a court order for McSorley’s to surrender. By the mid 1970s, McSorley’s allowed woman inside the bar at 15 E. 7th St for the very first time. Ah, but the owners did not completely forgo tradition, women would wait until 1986 to get their own restroom.
