Sampled yesterday, said it was a brewmaster's special blend up on the board, unfiltered red ale that is dry hopped with Amarillo hops

A-Light red with some orange highlights in the light, small 1/4 inch creamy off white head, not much retention, no lacing

S-Hops, caramel malt, small amounts of toffee, some nuttiness, grassy accents, lemon juice, and bread

T-Hoppiness quickly fades into some sweet malt, mostly caramel, dry finish with the amarillo hops, as it warmed it got more chewy and the bread accents really came out, not much sweetness with this one, nicely balanced for the most part, the taste was just not my thing

M-Creamy and dry mouthfeel, thin to medium body, lots of carbonation, aftertaste went away quickly

D-Could drink a pint or two of this, light on the stomach, mellow, low ABV, cannot taste any alcohol

My girlfriend did not care for this it all but it was not that bad, probably would not drink again when I go back or recommend it to others because they had some other great beers there
