Beautiful mahogony colour. Very little head. Biscuity Yeasty and malts aroma. Then a bit of malts and creaminess and that's all folks. Faint toastiness. Tad bitter aftertaste. Potential is there: Needs something big to make this a decent brew..more malts?

I get the sense that these guys are fiddling around with their red ale trying to hit the right mark.This one is similar to other reds they have, with slightly different names and/or ABV's.

Clear orange amber with a real short head that settles to a ring. Some spare spotty lace.

Smell is dominated by an undistinctive sweet malt laid over top of gentle hops. Big hit of sweet malt up front, then the hops dominate, but remain quite laid back. Some short lingering bitterness.

Drinkable, but doesn't try too hard. A little too anonymous.
