Red ale with more of a west coast styling appearance, it does have a hoppy red ale taste though. Relatively easy textured, but full-bodied. The beer name
threw Pink Floyd's 'Another Brick In The Wall' into my mind, which was number one on the first day of the 1980's.

Can from Against The Grain. Hazy amber body and a few flecks floating beneath a beige head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of toffee, nuts and stewed cranberries. Flavour of earth, caramel and copper. Medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. A solid beer that more like a Bitter than a hoppy red beer.
