On tap (sampler) at the Bethesda location, July 2006. More copper than red. Decent balance of dry malt and earthy hop. Rather reminiscent of an English bitter in character. Quite decent.

Bethesda location. Amber clear appearance. Fruity nose with light to moderate hop presence, mostly a fruit cocktail, pear and lightly toasted grain nose. Flavor is similar, lightly bitter, lightly hoppy pears and marachino cherries. Wet and slick palate, seems to be the standard with Rock Bottom beer. Just drinkable.

Indianapolis. Brilliant copper, light nutty-sweet aroma. Nutty/woody exceptionally sweet. Chalky, light cocoa. Nicely balanced, except a little too sweet. Medium body, slight diacetyl finish.

Draught at the brewpub. Clear orange color with thin off white head that laced the glass. Malty biscuit, caramel aroma. Flavor is similar with a hint of milk chocolate and toasted bread.

Draught at Brewpub during RBSG DC 06 Weekend Copper color, light amber, light head and lacing. Nose of light fruity malt, no hops though. The flavor is balanced, but has no body, no subtle roast and a characterless persona. Uh.

On tap @ brewhouse, Campell. Clear chestnut body with a small white head. Mild, malty aroma. Nice, harmonic flavor. Moderate hops, malty sweetness, a bit roasted. Aftertaste have some pleasant bitternes.

tap at brewpub-copper amber with a soapy white head. nice lacing once again from this one. nose is malty with lingering piney hops. flavors are balanced between sweet caramel malts and dry piney hops. well done once again. similar to the pale ale but with more malt presence. finish is sweet with lingering hop accents. very decent and refreshing amber ale.

Tap. Not a huge fan of reds but this one isn’t bad. Flowery aroma, light and sweet. Very faint hop taste.
