Bottle. Much better then Killians Red. Love the malt hop balance. Wonderful and tasty. Smells like killians with just a little less bitterness. Dark amber color like one would expect. Great beer.

From May 2008
Purchased at Liquor Shed in Casper for US$8.10 a sixer.
Pours a clear deep amber with a good 2 finger head of foam. Plenty of lacing and very good head retention.
Nice roasted and caramel malt greet my smell buds along with a pretty substantial bitter hoppiness.
The taste is very nice. Caramel malt gives it a big sweetness kick but there's an ample amount of roasted and toasted malt there as well and..it has a good hop bitterness that helps cut through the sweetness too. Tasty Red Ale here.
Body wise, it starts off close to medium but it thins out a bit just before the swallow and it finishes with a mix of bread and a slight hop bitterness. I really like this one and I find it very easy to drink. Well done BBC! Btw, the best by date notch is November 08! Super fresh!!

12 ounce bottle. Copper red color topped by a small beige head with nice lacing. Faint toasted malt nose. Caramel malt flavor. Some red fruit notes. Chewy mouthfeel. Nutty malt finish.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a clear reddish color with a medium tan head. A light malty caramel nose. The favor is caramel, toast, light floral hops, some sweeter maltier elements. Pretty nice for what it is. Clean. A bit of a spicy finish.

Bottle from the mixed 12 pack from Country 3 corners. Deep amber color decent sized off white head that persists. Rich caramel maltiness bready pilsener floral earthy hops round this out nicely. Pretty decent red ale.

Pours a nice rich garnet-brown from a bottle, white head with lots of lacing. Caramel and grass aroma, similar flavor, nicely bitter behind the sweetness. Good beer.

Clear mahogany pour with a beige head and good retention. Good lacing. Thick mouthfeel. Strong caramel flavor mixed with light hops bitterness. Wish it didn’t have the hops. 5.8 ABV is slightly evident.
