Served from bottle into a Stone nonic. Pours red-orange with a half finger off-white head that subsides slowly to a minimal amount. Maintains nice lacing throughout the glass. The aroma is comprised of big sweet malt and slight piney hops. The flavor is of sweet malt, caramel, and very slight pine hop. It has a medium feel on the palate with low carbonation. Overall this is a decent Red Ale. Not my favorite that I have for the style nor from Natty Greene's, but still good. Has a pretty nice aroma and is very refreshing. A must try for any fan of the style.

Drinking this at Natty Greene's Brewing Company in downtown Greensboro NC.
Poured from a tap into a pint glass.
I've drank this many times, I don't know why I'm just doing a review now.
Looks Amber with a nice foamy head that dropped quickly to a thin ring.
Smells lightly biscuity, spicy, nutty, caramel, sweet
Taste follows the nose nicely.
Mouth feel is medium for the style.
Overall a very nice example of a Amber Ale that I would definitely order again.
Cheers!

The Natty's product I have had mist recently, and the one I like the least. I have it at a tick above average at 3.25, but not much to say. It is a good beer, just not special.

Poured from a 12 OZ bottle into a pint glass. The appearance is an Amber brown color with a small off white head. The aroma is mild malt. The taste follows the nose.
