| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Mar 10, 2008 Had this one on-tap at the Abita Brew Pub in Abita Springs, LA. Poured a reddish/amber color that had a decent head that dissipated pretty quickly. Aroma was malty with just a bit of the hops coming through. Flavor was of caramel malts with a little hop bitterness. Mouthfeel was pleasant and drinkability was decent too.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 2, 2008 Pours a clouded amber with little head. Nose is tangy citrus with a bit of hops in there for good measure. Flavor is a softer firm bitter with a slight sweetness that is leafy. Kind of a slight metallic tone to it. Feel is nicely bodied on the liquid and has a good carbonation. Overall pretty drinkable. Smooth and fairly even. Nothing earth shattering, but still pretty good. Cletus (5057), Connecticut, USA

Pours amber with a thin white head. Smells malty with citrussy hints. Tastes malty with some perfumy undertones. TheOrange (405), Kent, Ohio, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 20, 2007 The pour is more orange then red colored. The off white bubbly head dissipated rather quick. The aroma is very promising, rich caramel malts. A very light drinking beer, the caramel malts are present at once. Very tasty. the finish is too quick and a tad on the thin side. This is a good easy to drink beer, definitely worth a few more drinks.

| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 20, 2007 The bottle poured clear rich amber color with moderate off white head. Not getting much in the nose. The flavor is a bit hoppy but the maltiness seems off balance. A little thin. Average brew. swampwiz (11), USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 30, 2007 A bit of a disappointment from this great brewery (perhaps I am too used to its great brother brew Turbodog?) Does not really taste like a red ale, but very similar to some of the more bolder pale ales I have sampled. Too raw for my taste, but definitely not boring.
