October Red
Goose Island Beer Co.

The best way to describe this beer is its a "cold, warm tasting beer". You can put this thing on ice for 24hrs, get frost bite holding the can and it still tastes warm. I served this at a party with people who will drink Natty Ice and they wouldn't drink this. It tastes like the last slip of a beer die cup that's been hanging on the table for 4 straight games. The best part of this beer is the cool looking blue can. You can put in your fridge to distract friends from taking your good beer. Or, if you have some "friends" that really annoy you bring a 15 pack over for them to keep. Water never tasted so good after you drink one of these.. All jokes aside this is an awful beer. I feel like a D-Bag for serving it at my party.

 

 

Pours a clear orange/red, small white head forms with some nice legs on the glass. Smell is sweet, with orange peel, floral hops and grainy rye maltiness. Taste is sweet up front, with orange peel and floral citrus hops, and grainy rye in the finish. Mouthfeel is smooth, with medium body and medium carbonation. The rye is really nice in the this brew.
