This beer pours a deep amber with copper hues, brilliant clarity and a long-lasting, off-white head. The aroma is fairly mild, but what is there is pretty balanced between the malt and hops with toast, mild caramel and a grainy character along with some earthy hops. The flavor, on the other hand, is all about the malt. It’s malty-sweet with corn, caramel, toast and a fairly dry roasty finish. Having never had this style before, I wasn’t really sure what to expect. It seems pretty close to style, which is basically a corny, duller Irish Red.
