Commercial Description:
A Bold Smooth Irish Red Ale. This Irish style ale is brewed with a rich blend of malts to give it a deep red full body and generous amounts of Willamette and Fuggle hops for a wonderful aroma and taste.

thin and watery appearance and mouthfeel. not sure what makes this an irish red versus a simple red ale. malty and tinges of hops, but nothing to shake a stick at, whatever that means. some carmel and honestly more english than irish... foamy waxy flavor.

Bottle. Poured a clear amber color with a thick, off-white head. Sweet malty aroma. Sweet flavor with a hint of caramel in the aftertaste. Thanks to Brett for this nice selection.

Looks like an Amber Ale, Aroma is light with some maltiness. Flavor shows more hoppiness than the aroma. Finish is thin and carbinated.

12 oz bottle via Leopoldstotch. My first beer from Arkansas. Pours a nice reddish color. I agree with the last reviewer, this beer smells odd. Taste is Malty with perhaps some brown sugar. No hop presence. Flavor is ok, but kinda odd. Worth a try.

Bottle via Chuck. The beer pours to a dark chestnut/light mahogany body with a light tan head. The aroma is strange. Perhaps stale old coffee and poorly made English toffee. The flavor is similar to the aroma but add lots more toast. The palate is moderate and feels fine.

Clear brown body. Stale toasty malt aroma. The flavor also has a staleness to go along with appley malt and lingering bittering hops. Meh.

reddish brown color w/ a tall small bubbled tan head w/ some decent lacing. Aroma is mild has something a bit pungent in it though.. like an english toffee w/ something wrong w/ it.. something just isn’t right and i can’t place it. Pal is avg. flavor has that light english toffee note w/ some sort of rotten sugars and a light hop finish.. This stuff is just not very good.
