The Kilkenny initially smelled like coffee. In addition, it had a smooth texture, little carbonation, was drinkable, and had a creamy texture.
Unfortunately, I didn't get much out of the experience. It tasted flat and uninteresting.

My friend has had Kilkenny once or twice before and on at least two occasions ordered the drink at Yard House in my presence only to be disappointed with the news that the beer was currently not available. On one of those occasions he had the Belhaven Scottish Ale instead and on another occasion he had the Boddingtons Pub Ale instead. In any case, given the opportunity to have the Kilkenny here at CVP (Charles Village Pub), I decided to order the Kilkenny.
I wrote: "Kilkenny on draft. Exceedingly carbonated feel. Creamier after letting the carbonation settle down." 6:50 PM
Overall, I'd say the Kilkenny is alright and I would conclude that I'm not particularly fond of pub cream ales. I'd much rather have a Guinness.

Its aroma is peppery and dry, to present on the other hand a flavour dominated by a very particular bitterness without any harshness but nevertheless tenacious to the palate and in its after-taste. This beer of great Irish tradition is redolent with all the good health of the emerald isle and its mesmerising mysteries.
