Feb 13, 2009 On tap at the Winking Lizard. Pours a clear reddish amber with a thin white head. Malty aroma with some bready yeast and hop. Sweet malt flavor with some cherry, caramel and a nice hop finish that is atypical to this style. Me likey.

Feb 10, 2009 Great Lakes Conway’s Irish Red Ale is a clear amber ale with a fading white head. It has a slightly sweet aroma that’s a little resiny. It is medium bodied, smooth, bubbly, and the finish is clean. It is simple and balanced, with notes of resin, smoke and peat. It has a good bitterness and a touch of sweetness. Not bad.

Feb 8, 2009 Woop! Awesome brew! Sampled from bottle this, tastey beer pours a clear but illuminating orange colour with a finger sized off white head. Decent amount of lacing that slides itself down the glass into the big pool of froth. Aroma is very earthy, honey, light roasted malts and maybe some vanilla on the nose as well. Taste is almost peaty- malty but well balanced. Mouthfeel is light, but firm, and creamy. Definately pick this one up!

Feb 4, 2009 Poured a crystal clear red-amber color with an off-white head. Caramel malt sweetness with some notes of toffee and light fruit. Malty flavor with toffee and a touch of nuttiness. Mild hop finish. Light to medium bodied.

Feb 1, 2009 I really enjoyed this offering from Great Lakes. Had a sweet flavor but had enough bitter kick from the hops. It smelled so good, and had a great appearence.

Jan 29, 2009 This was very good and it was no surprise. Good roasted bready taste that finished smooth with enough hops. Good dark red color. It was pretty thick too, or at least had a good body to it. Only thing that too away from it was a smell that wasnt too strong, but i can live with that for the most part.

Jan 27, 2009 Copper pour with a nice head. Aroma of cereal malts, some spice. Flavor is malty with the signature weird great lakes flavor. It would be really funny if I went to the brewery and none of these beers had this weird flavor and I’d been getting bad bottles all this time.
