Crescent City Red Stallion

Brewed by Crescent City Brewery
Style: Vienna
New Orleans, Louisiana USA

I sampled this beer on tap at the brewpub in New Orleans. The beer had a hazy amber color with a smaller white head with short retention. The beer had a caramel malt aroma with some light grainy hops too. It had a mostly sweet, lighter grainy malt flavor with just a bit of bitter effects. The beer had average carbonation was a bit thin and had a modest finish and mouthfeel.

On tap at brewery. Amber color. Sweet aromas with a grainy, fruity flavor.

Draft at brewery. Golden yellow with light head. sweet malt aroma. Strong grain flavor/malty sweetness.

On tap at the brewhouse. Amber color with malts and caramel in the aroma and flavor. Slightly grainy with a touch of fruitiness. Not a bad amber.

on tap-pours a thin white head and yellow/gold color. Aroma is sweet grain, light hops. Taste is sweet grain/light malt, secondary light /copper hops.

Draft. Amber pour with minimal white head. Nose was minimal, flavor was hoppy. I couldn’t find the malts that others have mentioned. Just felt a little watery.

Light copper body, small beige head. Aroma is not very apparent. Flavor is mostly malty with a twinge of hops; not much going on here. Passable but not memorable in any way.
