St. Stans Red Sky Ale

Brewed by St. Stans Brewing Company
Style: Amber Ale
Modesto, California USA

Bottle. A pleasant deep reddish brown color with a diminished tan head. A candy malt nose with a sticky malt flavor. This amber ale overcomes the dominant weakness in the style in that it is not thin and watery.

This was one of the first american beers I ever tasted years ago. I have never been able to find it in Canada again and that was back in 1995 It was a good strong tasting red beer very enjoyable.

I really enjoyed this amber! It’s very mild and drinkable - sort of a summer beer as user_ex says. The bitterness doesn’t show up until late in the aftertaste. Nice red color, too. Could be confused with a lager, taste-wise.

Reddish brown color. Slightly caramelized malts. Slightly hoppy, some malt sweetness. Good balance. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is slightly bitter, some sweetness.

Malty medium body, sweet malt aroma, nice fresh hop bite.

It has a light red hue to it and light head. Formed small white head that left little lace. Initial aroma of hops, then slight malt smell. Lighter beer for a amber/red ale.

This is probably one of the better amber ales I’ve had, it’s crisp with mild-medium nose mostly malt. Still not incredibly useful with food except with maybe spicy or dominant food, though I could see this as a summer beer.

Reddish brown. Light bodied, bubbelgum estery, roasty, well balanced.
