Cracked open the mini-bottle and took a whiff: smells just like a light American beer (e.g., Coors Light). Seriously. So i dumped it into my rocks glass -- neat, of course -- and took another nasal inhalation. Yup, that is Coors Light if i ever smelled it! Oh gawd, what's it gonna taste like? Oooh, okay, that ain't no beer. Whew! I'm getting smooth honey. Nice. Hints of orange peel in the retro-hale. Getting some vanilla as well. Wow, not bad, not bad at all. Overall, honey & that traditional "Irish whiskey" flavors are the most dominant. Rating based on neat sipping.
