Surprised this thread is so unpopular.

Can anyoone confirm it's definitely O'Hara's?

Just cracked open my first bottle of the ale

I hope it was a bad one or something, this is not good - there is an absolutely disgusting after taste.

I also hope it isn't O'Hara's Red, I haven't actually got around to tasting that yet despite the Aldi Red being my favourite drink.

I had two bottles last night and thought they were fantastic, much more complex than the O Haras red, in my opinion. Although it is floral and has the grapefruit sweetness that I associate with the O Haras IPA, it also has a lovely toasty finish and at 1.99 it's great value.
I'll try the stout next time.

I had both the other night. I really liked the stout. Fantastic.

I'll have to disagree, I got one of each during the week.
Very dissapointing I thought.
The ale was ok, but very light bodied and a bit bland, not a patch on the specialty ale of old.
The stout I thought almost undrinkable, maybe it's a quality control thing.
I will not be buying either again.
