Commercial Description:
Maybe you're not in the mood for a raspberry flavored, low carb, ice, dry maltsicle, and you certainly aren't in the mood for a Rotgutzen. You are, however, always in the mood for a Pinstripe. Brewed with caramel malts and Liberty hops, the Pinstripe has a slight fruity finish and dance.

Bottle. Pours a dark amber with a small white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is a sweet malt with raisin and caramel. Medium mouthfeel with a light hop taste with caramel and citrus. A good amber fron Ska.

Clear copper color with a small tan head. Little retention. Nice aroma begins with malt followed by a quick hit of rye and then pine hops. Flavor is caramel, syrupy rye, tart citrus hops. Peppery spice comes late. The malt is dominant. Since I like a maltier beer this one gets rated just a tad above average.

Pours amber with a thin off white head. Aroma is sweet maltiness. Flavor is sweet toasty malt, with a little sweetness, and a bit of hop.

Pours clear medium golden with an off white head. Aroma is a little caramel malt with some light hoppiness. Flavor is a little sweet with some decent bitterness in the finish. Decent beer

12oz bottle from Lukas Liquors. Pours golden orange with white head. Thought this was an amber. Aroma is caramel malts. Flavor is caramel and sweet malt with a bit of a metallic note. Really just a malty lager. And not a good one either. This borders on pale lager area. How can they call this a red ale. This brewery does some other shitty things like put wax on average beers. Wax should be used for something big or special not blonde ales.

CLose to a perfect pour. Cloudy amber with a frothy 1 inch head that sticks around long enough for you to enjoy it. Caramel malt nose, nutty, molasses, sugar, caramel, citrus flavor. Palate is mostly nutty malt. Medium bodied, smooth drinkability.

Pours orange-red with not much head. Not a bad tasting beer, a slight sweetness & is pretty smooth. Tried it once but will not get it again.
