Location: Draft at CLT, 1/15/15
Aroma: Light caramel malt aroma, earthy notes, there is not a ton more than that here
Appearance: It pours a darker orange color, with a clear, small head, and basically no lacing
Flavor: It is pretty similar flavor-wise, malty and kinda sweet, with a mild bitterness
Palate: It has a decent feel to it, a light-medium body, and a fairly lively carbonation
Overall Impression: I don’t have a ton to add to the overall. It’s an okay lager, but not a particularly great one.

Sampled on draft this beer poured a red-caramel color with a medium sized creamy off white head that left decent lacing. The aroma was very faint, a touch malty and had a bit of fruity hops. The flavor was sweetish caramel and dark fruits. Medium length finish. Moderately full bodied and smooth. Pleasant.

A reddish amber lager with a thin moka head. Strong aroma of caramel and stewed prunes, light chalky notes. In mouth, a cloying sweet malt with almost no hops, some mineral notes, light and boring. On tap at Clarion Greensboro Airport, 28 August 2010.

Draught, Taste of Carolina, Charlotte Airport
Slightly hazy amber colour. Thin head. Malty, caramelly nose is fairly straightforward. Lightly toasty accent to a largely caramelly palate. Clean but simple.

Draft. Pours a dark reddish brown color. The Aroma is a nice malt one, with notes of sweetness to it. Flavor is actually a lot more refreshing than the ratings would indicate. I’d take this over other macros any day if I was in Greensboro.

On draught at the brewpub. This is probably my favorite beer from Red Oak. Pours a ruddy amber color with a medium and creamy light beige head. Thin lacing. This beer has a nice toasty nose. Medium-bodied with a toasted malty flavor, as well as toffee and caramel. The finish is very smooth. This is a standout beer for this brewpub.
