22 oz bottle. Aroma was of a light citrus and that it. Red body with off white head and some lacing. Just an ordinary mild to sweet citrus craft beer to add to ratings on rate beer. Maybe got one of those bad bottles or this was just not as good as other Full Sail beers I’ve had.

Bottle: Beautiful color blend of copper and amber. Big, creamy beige head and thick lacing. Nose is hoppy and citrus fruit with a balanced malt presence. Taste is more floral in hops, but has citrus and caramel malt present too. I was quite happy with this offering from Full Sail.

Dark amber, moderate head with solid lacing and retention. Aroma is caramel, toffee and grapefruity hops. Medium bodied with a velvety mouthfeel, somewhat sweet finish. Enjoyable, I thought this was a weird Red Ale before checking this site.. I feel better now.

22 Special Ounces of Special Red Ale. 2007 Brewmaster Reserve. Dark copper amber color. Foamy tan head. Lots of caramel malts in the aroma. Hint of grapefruit and citrus in the nose as well. Floral flavor, rose, and some candy. Lots of malt. Very balanced palate. I wish I had another bottle of this one!

22 oz bottle from BevMo LaJolla. Pours a dark crimson amber color with a moderate beige head that leaves a trace of lace as it settles. Aromo is predominantly toasty and caramel malts, with a rather generous side portion of floral and herbal hops. Flavor also skews to the malt side initially, again toasty with a bit of dark fruit, then a lightly citrus and floral hop bite comes on from the middle to the finish. Medium body and gently tickling carbonation. Very drinkable.

Dark amber good head. Sweet malt aroma. Sharp hop bite at the finish. Slight floral and cotton candy sweetness in the taste. A bit too sweet for my liking.

(Bottle) Pours a clear mahogany body with a medium beige head. Aroma of toasted oats, caramel, light citrus, and florals. Flavor of caramel malt and hops.

Bottle. A copper brown color with a foamy tan head. Caramel, lightly toasted, cookie, light fruits (grapefruit) and floral aroma. Quite nice, actually, for a style that rarely seems to produce a strong aroma. A mild fruit (tartness) flavor with a solid malty flavor, light hops, and a semi-sweet finish.
