Upland Rad Red Amber Ale

Hazy orange pour with suspended yeasty’s . Grass, grapefruit, and caramel on the nose. Toasted malts, light caramel and piney hops.

Nice amber color. medium head that hung around for a few minutes. aroma caramelly, toffee. very nice flavor; bitter, grapefruit, dark malt. delicious.

Dark amber to copper in color with a small, but relatively stable off-white head. Toffee, butterscotch, raw sugar, and fruit heavy in the aromas, with some iron, grass and grapefruit in the background. Sweet caramel malt and light fruit in the flavors to start. Middle has a bit of hops that are mildly herbal Full feel. Just noticed that they have someone riding a crotch rocket on the label, how did that get bu the ATF? LIght mineral in the finish and fairly crisp. A touch sweet, but overall a amber that I find quite drinkable.

Amber pour, a bit cloudy. Caramel malt jumps out on the nose and tongue. Some fruity esthers and crackers. Not bad. Just ok.

bottle - Pours amber with suspended yeast flakes and a one finger, lingering head that laces well. The aroma is mainly malt with notes of caramel and some fruitiness. It tastes of lightly toasted malt and a good, crisp, moderate hops. It’s very well hopped for an amber. It’s medium bodied with a moderately bitter finish where, to me, the hops go a bit flat. Good brew overall. Give it a try.

This draft brew from a beer festival poured a very large sized head of frothy medium sized off-white colored bubbles that were and left behind a transparent softly carbonated light copper colored body and an excellent lacing. The mild aroma was malty. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of acidic hops. Not one that I would buy again.

Clear ruddy orange pour with a small beige head, minimal lace. Floral aroma with hints of caramel and aroma. Flavor nice balances a gentle but present hops load with lightly toasted malts. Clearly floral, but also toasty, caramel, vanilla, toffee. A little huskiness on the finish. Medium body, coarse but lively palate.Overall I am pleased.

Bottle poured in a goblet. Hazy reddish-orange held to the light with a small tan head. Smells of spicy hops, can’t place them. Maybe a little Belgian yeasty smells but they fade fast. Flavor is tart and alive. Wheaty finish. My bottle had a zombie. I guess that’s rad. Very enjoyable everyday drinker.
