| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 3, 2009 Updated: Jun 28, 2009Draft at Redlight Redlight. Pours a lightly translucent, dark chestnut brown color. A small head of taupe colored foam settles to a swirly film with a skinny ring around the rim. Hardly any lacing remains. The nose starts off with darkly toasted, grainy rye and wheat malt. Scorched caramel lends sweetness to the aroma, with bitterness seemingly stemming from the burn on the grain rather than hops. Flavors follow suit, contrasting notes of sweet burnt caramel, toasty biscuit, and various dried grains showing as the main focus. Medium bodied, semi-dry, and just beyond moderately carbonated, the palate neither disappoints or impresses. Eh, decent beer, but it’s far from mind blowing. michael-pollack (2749), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA
