"An enjoyable beer! Very easy to drink and the taste is good. Amber pour with a nice foamy head, good lacing on the glass. Sweet caramel malt flavor, goes down easy. Not bad.

A nice light and easy drinking red that has a solid profile example of the style... just easier to drink is all.

Delicious. I was drinking some 40’s one night, Miller no less, and after finishing them off I had one of these... I almost shat at how good it was compared. I already knew it would taste better, but this would have rated a near perfect 5 had I rated it that night.

Having cut my teeth years ago on Irish Red (Weinhards), I have a partial bias toward the style. The color is a dark red amber. The head lasted for a good amount of time for a lager. Flavor is bold and full. Could drink these all day.

12 oz. bottle. Pours copper color with long lasting off-white head. Soda like carbonation. Very light aroma of floral hops, caramel malt, and alcohol. Light body. Flavor is also light: floral hops caramel malt and alcohol (too much for the style). Finish practically non existent. I still remember I used to like this beer when I was Coors Extra Gold fan.
