Bomber to pint glass. Aromas of overt rich malt but also a hint of cardboard in the background. No detectable hop present - how unusual for an American Red! Pours clear amber-mahogany with an off-white head that retains as just a collar and a dusting across the top. Taste is bread and biscuit malts. Moderate high carbonation with a thin mouthfeel for the malt. Back half of palate is a rough bitterness that seems a little medicinal and finishes astringent. Some good aspects of this beer tail off in the taste, especially as it warmed.

Backlog. Cask @ Beach Chalet, 2007. Aroma’s of fruit and sweet malts. Retronasal it’s sweet, fruity, a bit herbal/spicy. Flavor is moderate bitter with a malty sweet backbone. Light bodied, on the thin side. Long moderate bitter finish, some malty sweetness as well. Quite good.

Tap@BC. Pours cloudy yellow gold with a small off-white head that dissipates slowly with nice lacing. Aroma is peppery with that exotic lemony twist that I now recognize as birds of paradise, some grassy notes as well. Flavor is light plus sweet, light bitter, grassy, peppery, floral. Medium body, full mouthfeel. I enjoyed this.
