Sideswipe Brewing

 

 

From the 12 oz can in a snifter via Bluejacket74----Cheers Dude!
This solid little red pours a clear and bright red tinged dark amber with a
nice head of white foam that settles to a thick ring, thin layer, and shows
subtle lacing. Nose of caramel, toasted malts, and light breaded malts.
Flavors expand nicely with toasted breaded malts, caramel, and the
addition of light herbal hops. Nice mouth feel; medium light body,
medium light carbonation that is nice and lively offering some lift.

Overall, hard to wrong with this brewery, and this brew is no exception.

Cheers

12 ounce can, no dating that I noticed on it but I'm pretty sure it was released over the past month or so. Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a mostly clear reddish/orange color with about an inch off-white head. Head retention and lacing are both good. Aroma is nice and malty, the brew smells like toasted malt, caramel, and a general stone fruit aroma. Taste is pretty much just like the aroma, but there's also the addition of some bready malt flavors. Mouthfeel/body is light/medium, it's smooth and easy to drink with a moderate amount of carbonation. I liked this Irish Red Ale, certainly won't take long to finish these! $9.99 a 6-pack.
