L- nice red color
S-mild sweet aroma
T-it has more bitterness than I like in a red lager. Slightly hoppy after taste
F-relatively clean, smooth feel in the mouth
Overall, it’s an okay red lager but nothing that I would seek out to drink

Pours a brilliant auburn-red in color, topped with a pale tan head. Good lacing.
Malty and clean on the nose... no surprises, and no off-notes.
Sweet, clean, and malty on the first sip. Bock-like... reasomably rich malt character, almost too sweet and one-dimensional, but there some bitterness (51 IBU!), so this has some hops in it, but not much going on in the aromatics.
A “malt bomb”, and a decent one at that. Not sure if it was a Bock they were going for, but it’s nearer a bock (or a strong, wintertime festbier) than a standard-strength red lager of the e.g. “Leinenkugel’s Red” variety.
Date on bottom of can: 11/01/18

L-Impressive clean, clear cherrywood hued.
S-Toasted malts....lightly spicy
T-Starts with a big dose of toasted malt...spicy hop notes mingle and balance....finishes with a light splash of alcohol.
F-Clean...perhaps a little hot for the style.
O-Enjoyable beer. Dial down the abv slightly and this would be better.

Can art says European Style red lager. IBUs is listed at 41 so it is quite hoppy for a Euro lager. Clear red tinted amber color with a finger of head. Aroma of bready malt with almost a honey like quality. Hops give floral qualities. Sweet malt flavor but it does have a bitter finish. Much sweeter than I expected. Pale fruit notes to accompany the bready and crystal malt. Has a bit of an artificial flavor from the crystal malt. Suitably carbonated for a medium bodied lager.
