Poured into a glass from a can. Cloudy copper color with little to no head. A sweet caramel taste and smell almost slightly bitter after taste.

Just a little too bitter, in my opinion for a red ale, I like a good roasted malt & caramel flavors to come through. Still one of the better Reds.

16 ounce draft pour into a Pilsner-ish glass.

L: Coppery red, some haze, very little off-white foam, looks like the server did their best to snuff out the head.
S: Caramel and toasted malt, fruity esters.
T: Malt forward and sweet, caramel malt, some nutty and fruity flavors.
F: Medium-weight, crisp around a somewhat creamy body.
O: Definitely a strong example, nice malt character.

Pours a dark copper color with a foamy head that lasts a quite a while. Aroma of roasted malts. Taste is spicy with a hint of caramel. Crisp and dry.

Color is copper with a shallow head. Not much of a nose, but the taste and feel makes this a good beer. My first time sipping it. I will have more.

L - Poured from draft into a Pilsner glass. Amber red color. Bartender poured out the head. Has a light film of bubbles on top.

S - Malt-forward sweet scents. Some metal/copper scents.

T - Taste follows scent with caramel type malts. Some deeper nutty flavors. Slight hop that appears near the finish.

F - Good full and creamy mouthfeel. Nice carbonation level.

O - Very good straightforward beer. This is my first choice when I go to BJ’s Brewhouse. I recommend it to anyone.
