My all time favorite. Red Oak smeels of fresh hops and malt. A true treat. Red Oak uses no preservatives and it tastes accordingly.

I live in Greensboro, where red Oak is brewed and have enjoyed the beer right from the brewery many times. It is full bodied and flavorful with a nice head. However, I've had it at several local restaurants where the beer was flat, dull, and lifeless. Red Oak is only available on tap so c'mon boys and keep a fresh keg tapped because freshness makes all the difference! CaptainChaos (13), , North Carolina, USA

It is a great beer to drink with a steak dinner. It has a nutty & caramel taste and looks great coming out of the tap. The only problem I have is that the Brewery doesn’t bottle it yet, so I have to go to a local bar and pay $3.00 to get it. Bassy15 (60), Cullowhee, North Carolina, USA

Nice taste lite nut, woody and smooth, not too heavy, good taste on its own as well. I personally enjoy it, but it is my local beer.
Don't buy it anywhere else then the corner of Guilford college and friendly. Try the Drunk'n Chicken with the beer.

DIFFERENT TASTE VARIANT FROM KEG TO KEG. HOWEVER THIS IS A FAIRLY TASTY BREW, ESPECIALLY FOR GREENSBORO! LOVE THAT THIS BREW IS UNFILTERED! HAS GOOD SEMI-SWEET MALTINESS. LOOKING FORWARD TO NEW BREWERY IN WHITSETT! Braudog (3766), Dayton, Ohio, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 29, 2007 True unfiltered Munich. I don’t know why this is under Oktoberfest, it’s not their Oktoberfest offering. Amber, off-white head, caramel and malt taste, slight red apple. Yeast sediment at times, sometimes sour.
Tastes slightly of a compromise to please the masses, but nonetheless a fine offering. Too much bastardization of German practice in America, in my opinion. brentfeesh (1038), Gadsden, Alabama, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 26, 2006 Sampled at the 10th annual Brewgrass festival in Ashville. Amber color with light hazy and a light head. Lightly toasted lagerish grain. Nothing off at all in the aroma, just straight forward. Toasted grain flavor with a creamy sweetness. Some fruity notes hiding in there and a lightly bitter lingering finish. Interesting and enjoyable. Medium creamy body.
