Red Brick Peachtree Pale Ale

Brewed by Atlanta Brewing Company
Style: American Pale Ale
Atlanta, Georgia USA

Super tall off-white head (may have let this one get too cold). Cloudy dark golden body. Aroma of citrus, sharp resin, and faint caramel/dough. Decent texture with a fairly strong bitter finish for a pale ale. Bitterness lingers a bit too long though. Good, interesting pale ale.

Bottle from Kingdom Liquors. Poured a hazy amber color with an average frothy off-white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate sour citrus hop and small malt aroma. Medium bittersweet flavor with a medium bittersweet finish of moderate duration. Medium body with a slick texture and soft carbonation. My expectations where met.

Pours a darkish golden color with a small white head. It has a grapefruit smelling hop aroma and the aroma of pine. It has a pleasant lingering hop bitterness and a citrus grapefruit hop taste along with a pine taste and is a bit dry. This is a pretty good beer.

From the Jug at the GABF Colorado Convention Center, Denver 11/10/2008 Hoppy aroma. Clear golden coloured fruity and hoppy with a crisp and slightly dry bitter finish.

12oz bottle courtesy of bhalter8. Pours a hazy orange to copper color with one finger white head that settles quickly. Aroma is sweet and floral with notes of caramel, honey, grass, wheat, light floral esters, light floral hops. Flavor is sweet and sweet and floral with notes of caramel, honey, floral hops, light citrus, light pine. Generally light to medium body with a pleasing hoppy finish.

Bottle. Pours a very lightly hazy orange-amber hue. A massive head froths up way too quick, indicating probably infection. Sticky, cloud-like patches of lacing coat the glass. The aroma confirms my suspicions....this one is funked. Peppery, dirty smelling yeast dominates any underlying malt, while bitter orange peel keeps things sharp. The flavor is biting and bitter, citrusy and grassy, with very little toasted toffee sweetness and a minerally, earthy finish. Overly active and bone dry, the palate is all off. Get your sanitation in order, folks.

Bottle. Orange with thin white head. Kind of cloudy. Nice citrus(hoppy) smell. Taste clean and refreshing. Better than average I’d say. Great, no probably not.

Sampled at the 8th Annual Music City Brewer’s Festival. Caramel, orange, white head. Aroma is caramel, toasted malt. Taste is spicy hops, caramel, toasted malt.
