Ring-Necked Red Ale
Rusty Rail Brewing Company

From a pint can, poured into a beer glass.
The look is a copper/tea color with a one finger head, low clarity, and a little spotty lacing.
The flavor is malty, a bit of herbal/spice, a little lemon grass and coriander, some black tea, and dried fruit.
The finish has a pleasant tea-like bitterness, nicely balanced, with a slight tangy note.
A very good Red Ale!

Poured into a wide mouth, grip shaped goblet: color is amber not clear/not hazy/transparent, head is light tan with fine bubbles that present one finger thick then dissipate to solid top, spotty lacing on the glass sides.

Smell is light sweet malt with light caramel, toast, sweetness, hint of herbal and grassed hops.

Taste is more pronounced and very drinkable - toast, caramel, malt, herbal tea, grassed hops - pleasant and not overdone.

Mouthfeel is moderate carbonation, moderate sweetness, moderate bitterness.

Overall - great to see a malty beer break through the haze - and a very good one at that.

Pours a nice amber with a cream colored foaming head that hangs around.

Fresh grains- wheat and malted barley- with lemon grass and bitter herb notes.

Light crisp and refreshing with notes of caramel malt and lemon grass hops. A nicely balanced delicious beer.
