"Laden with complex chocolate and coffee flavours, balanced by a robust bitterness and delicate spicy aroma, O'Hara's leann folláin is a full-bodied extra Irish stout."
Forgettable, in my humble opinion.

Luxardo Maraschino liqueur
"Luxardo liqueur is made according to the original recipe in the possession of the Luxardo family since 1821
"Delicious on fruit-salad, strawberries, raspberries, kiwi."
I never had the chance to taste Luxardo liqueur before. I made several cocktails that were asking for maraschino liqueur, but I must admit none of the substitue I found were really similar to this amazing beverage. I tried an unknown brand found in an Italian shop in Grenoble, France. I tried Bols Maraschino liqueur and it is very different from the original stuff.
I finally made a proper aviation with it:
My flatmate found it a bit bitter and sour (while I found it very good) and he added a dash of simple syrup.
32% ABV. Read more on Luxardo website.

Fuller's India Pale Ale
"This historic style of ale was originally created to refresh the troops at the height of the British Empire in India. This brew has faithfully recreated these traditional characteristics, creating a superbly refreshing beer.
"Bottle conditioning, where a small amount of yeast is allowed to ferment gently in the bottle, gives this beer the fresh, natural flavour of real ale. Pale amber in appearance, India Pale Ale has a distinctively hoppy flavour from the Goldings hops in the brew."
5.3% ABV. Read more on Fuller Smith & Turner P.L.C. website.
