Oct 10, 2005 (2005 Newport Microbrew Festival) Common light flavor with a strong reddish color. No hops flavor or aroma. A nice small malty flavor with a light aroma of malt also. This is your common lawnmower beer.

Oct 8, 2005 Wow i just realized there is a place called hopland CA. Sounds like i need to live there. Well you could kinda smell the caramel in this. It was much stronger in the taste. Pretty dry. Not all that bad i suppose.

Sep 26, 2005 A classic hoppy pale ale. Broke clean initially and was pleasant with spicy food. Bored my palate after 1/2 bottle, but that could also be a result of the spicy food!

Sep 23, 2005 Bottle poured a nice amber with a smallish white head.
Aroma is light malt and hops aroma.
Flavor is sweet malt but not too strong.
Light hops at the finish.
Just a good easy drinking beer.

Sep 18, 2005 Minimal head with a nice full aroma with some fruity tones. Feels heavy with a full malt taste.

Sep 16, 2005 Thanks to Wawood for this one. Very much like a Scottich ale. Light amber color with a thin head that continues to float on the top of the beer. Heavy malt aroma and flavor; the hops are an afterthought. Very full bodied as far as amber ales go, with considerable malty sweetness.

Sep 12, 2005 Not a bad brew. Some nice hops. This is one of the better amber ales I’ve tasted. The amber ales I’ve had in the past have all been pretty bland. Not so, red tail ale.

Sep 7, 2005 This pours a deep amber body with a continual stream of carbonation that constantly refreshes its chunky, creamy beige head. Great lacing. The aroma is caramel with light fruits and an appreciable amount of earthy hopping. Thick and creamy, the caramel dominates the flavor coupled with juicy plums, some peppery spicing, and solid herbal/earthy hops. The finish is dry and leaves a peppery feeling on the tongue. Very good. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp? Wine & Spirits, Downers Grove, IL<font size=-1>
