12oz bottle pours a hazy copper amber with one ring of white head. Aroma smells like bread, heavy yeast, a little metal. Flavor is overly malty, yeasty, sweet. Finish is medium bodied. Nothing distinct about this in the least.

12 ounce bottle from the brewery. Pours a hazy red color with a moderate offwhite head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma of caramel and banana, with some other fruity notes. Almost like fruit punch. Taste is caramel, cherries, banana and very, very subtle earthy notes. Again, much like fruit punch. Zero bitterness. Thin bodied. Not really very good at all.

Bottle. Redish-orange color, with a small head. Aroma of sweet musk. Powerful slightly roasty malt flavor. A little on the weaker side, but it’s alright. The "Redneck Ale" at Dremos was superior to the bottled version. The current updated rating represents this version over the bottled version.

Slightly hazy copper body with a thin white head. Sweet malty aroma. Strong malty flavor with a bit of a rough edge.

Pretty orangeish-brown color with no head. Smell is completely full of malts. Flavor is dominated by maltiness with hints of floral fruitiness- kinda plain, but has an interesting, original flavor.
