This is a pleasant red ale. Looks a bit more like an Oktoberfest or Marzen. Easy-drinking. A tad bitter at the end. Great work.

Pours a hazy brown with chunks of unfiltered goodness swirling about. Gives up a tan head.
The aroma is all brown sugar coated pecan pie.
The flavor is nutty, grainy, biscuity, and malty and just about perfect.
The mouthfeel is gentle.
Overall a fantastic example of a red ale.

12 ounce can - Charlie's Beer & Wine in Marietta, Georgia.
CANNED ON 10/04/18.
Appearance: Pours a hazed, golden-amber body with a medium-small, off-white head.
Smell: Lightly toasted breadcrusts, coarse-ground peanuts with very faint, far-off hints of roast, caramel with small spurts of esters.
Taste: A little toastiness, some breadiness and a bit of barley graininess. A handful of dry roasted peanuts, a touch of sweetish caramel. Slight fruitiness. Only just a blip of bitterness, a mildly herbal dry hop character. Light, lingering, dry maltiness on the finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium carbonation.
Overall: It's serviceable, though definitely not an Irish Ale paradigm.
