We’ve put the “red” in Red Cypress with a refreshing hybrid of German and American styles! With aromas of crusty baked bread, a balanced hop bitterness and a clean, dry finish, this approachable ale proves our roots run deep.

Note: I am in the process of moving all of my ratings from other beer sites to here, so that all of my ratings are consolidated in one place. The review below is an exact copy of my original RateBeer review from 04/15/2017.


12 oz. can. Pours a muddy amber that looks kind of like cola. Head is off-white, frothy, and dissipates quickly. Aroma is sweet with scents of brown sugar, caramel, and citrus. Taste is mildly bitter with just a touch of sourness. It is medium-bodied with a slightly thick texture and average carbonation. The finish is mild and quick. Overall, I find there to be nothing special about this brew.

Poured from a 12 OZ can into a pint glass. The appearance is a dark Amber color with a small off-white head. The aroma is malt with some hops. The taste is an unsavory slightly bitter hop and malt blend.

12oz can. Can’t discern a code date on bottom of can. Appearance: Deep Amber brown, hazy, and a slightly off white foam head that is realatively thick. Aroma: Strong toasty bread crust and nutty, rye malt character. Slight herbalbhop note that is fairly restrained. Taste: Light to moderate malt sweetness that is heavy on toasted bread crust, some nuttiness, then turns to a sharp, strong bitterness that delivers a kick with a touch of citrus flavor. Mouthfeel: Fairly light bodied with a low to moderate carbonation. Maybe a bit on the thin side. Finish: Leaves a dry powerful citrus bitterness that lingers, then has a sudden burst of strong toast. Overall: a decent beer that is most closely related to an altbier. Has a clean, crisp profile of a lager, a strong, almost acrid toasted breadiness, followed by a high herbal/citrus bitterness. Has a bit of haze and seems a little thin. With a touch more body against the high bitterness this could balance better

L: pours dark bronze worth a finger of white head that fades fast
S: sweet malt, but not a big aroma.
T: hoopy and bitter and hops are not pleasant either
F: thin, not refreshing and down right hard to drink

On tap at the brewery taproom.
\Deep, dark, clear red-bown body with a good head and very good lacing.

Aroma: mild and malty

Flavor: richer, stronger and more hoppy than the aroma suggests, but not rich or strong or hoppy.

Feel: medium body and carbonation; dry finish.
