Runabout Red Ale is a classic. It is brewed with three malt varieties which create the sweet malty backbone and deep amber color. The bready malt character transitions to grassy hops that glide on your palate with every sip.

Can from Beer52. Brownish amber with a thin off-white head. Bit of metal, quite a bit of caramel and a light fruitiness. Creamy mouthfeel. Mild bitterness with a hint of grass. Distinctly sub-par.

12oz can from Beer 52; canned on 4th Mar 19, drank at home on 21st Apr 19. Nice easy drinking uncomplicated red/amber ale. An off-white head sat on the clear and clean body, some malty esters filled the air and my first sip, like the last held a flavour of semi-sweet malty molasses. Well (or highly) carbonated, but I really enjoyed it.

Refrigerated 12 oz. aluminum can poured into a cup. Dark Amber with small off-white head. Aroma is malty, medium body, lower carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is caramel malt and balancing herbal hops.

Draft at the brewery. Pretty amber color with an off-white head. Great lacing. Indistinct aroma. Good malty caramel flavor. Smooth. Very little bitterness. More lager characteristics versus an ale.

Reviewed from notes. This was poured into a pint glass every time I’ve had it.
The appearance was a ruddy burnt amber to red/ brown color with a one finger white foamy head that left some light foamy lacing coating the top of the glass.
The smell had mainly some burnt caramel malts up front with a fairly light citrus hops really lightly in the background.
The taste was somewhat sweet through the mixture of hops and the malts.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. The carbonation was good as there’s nothing wrong with it, there’s not exactly everything right with it.
Overall, this was not a bad beer, but probably not one of the better ones of its style.

On tap at the Kennebunk location. A bright copper colour with a ring of white head; malty taste with some berry fruit; and a dry, pleasantly bitter finish.
