Poured off tap. Nice head, medium carbonation. Nice red ale. Malty nose and taste. Nice flavor. Much fuller then a Killians or Lienies Red. Slightly bitter finish. (as there should be) Nothing too special but...I may have to try a few more of these.

tap - Pours amber with a one finger light tan head. It has a mild caramel malt aroma. The flavor too is all about the caramel malt. There’s a little bit of hops in there and it’s certainly easy to quaff. Not bad.

(draught - St. Louis) light brown with hints of ruby, generous light tan head with some lace. Sweetish biscuit malt aroma. Flavor was biscuit/caramel with a hint of grapes. Good body.

Draft at Fort Wayne, IN location.Small, very fizzy, light tan head that mostly diminished, spotty amounts of lacing, transparent, and an orange brown hue. Nose was malt and caramel and ditto for the flavor.Tingly mouthfeel and medium in body.Quaffable, very easy to drink, nothing truly special stoodout about this beer, would be okay for a session beer.

This draft brew from a restaurant poured a head of foamy tan colored bubbles that were mostly diminishing and left behind a transparent dark orange brown colored body and a poor lacing. The mild aroma was Irish Red malty. The mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of malt hops and mild brown malt. An OK brew just nothing special.
