Draft at the brewery on Railroad St. Pours amber with a beige head. Light malt aroma with toasty and lightly sweet notes. Medium body. Flavor starts with lightly sweet malt, toast and caramel notes and ends with a light hop bitterness. Nice.

Got this one in a growler. It has a lovely color and nice aroma. Unfortunately, the taste is a little thin. The aftertaste is really pretty good, not a clean finish, but one that lingers with more flavor than initially.

Large cup at the ball park. Aroma and appearance were good for an Irish red. The taste was good, but a little too watery. Good malt flavor however. Finish was nice and smooth.crisp.

Bought a small (12-ounce?) cup at the ball park. I wanted the Scotch Ale but they were out. I was a bit disappointed: RW is somewhat thin-bodied and doesn’t have enough flavor, maybe just a light maltiness. I would recommend a different ale from Rohrbach, but it is a step up from the macros they offer.

(draft @ Rohrbach’s - Ogden, NY) Nice red pour with a thin tan head. Aroma is really malty and sweet. The flavor has a nice malt sweetness at the front and a very slight hoppy bitterness at the end. Really tastes like a British bitter, not too extreme one way or the other.
