On tap as Craftsman Flemish Red. Pours with a hazed, glowing red to orange body with a small white head that fades. Aromas are a bit sweet, jammy, estery, light caramelization. Vinous, fruity, lightly oaky, lactic, yogurt. Flavors show some good acidity up front. Strongly lactic, light oak. Very fruity, jammy, strawberries, raspberries and cherries. Light sweetness. Cleanly but strongly lactic, no acetic qualities. Lighter carbonation, medium bodied and a slightly tannic finish. On the sweeter side, but I still found it very enjoyable.

Draft. Cloudy dull amber. Earthy aroma of English hops at American levels. Soft fruity character with mellow earthy hops. Well made, but not my preferred hop character.
