What Our Editors Thought
“Dark ruby in color with an approachable malt-driven aroma. A sturdy background with toasted notes throughout carries the beer, while sweetness and subtle bitterness pair neatly without being too heavy.”
What Our Panel Thought
“A wallop of perfectly toasted toast on the nose. Upon drinking, you get butterscotch, some nice nutty notes, and a bit of plum. Very drinkable and smooth with an aftertaste of warm Saltine crackers.”
What the Brewers Say
“An Irish-style red ale with malt-driven flavors of toasted grains, a mild sweetness, and a touch of roast barley.”
