Berghoff Rock River Red Ale

12 oz single thanks to Kevin for the chance to try this.
What is this??
Expecting an Amber/Red of *some* description I get a honey-colored, slightly hazy beer that, apart from the big, fluffy head, appears to be a macro color.
The nose and tastes are SUPER sweet and grainy. I mean SWEET, even by my standards that can usually tolerate a lot of sweetness. There’s a corny maltiness about the beer too. Metallic features amongst the vegetal notes. Some alcohol.
Strange, and if this is an Amber/Red then I am a Dutchman. ZERO out of five for the style, and pretty undrinkable to boot as well. The head is decent, retained to some extent and overs some watery lace, but utside of that this is fairly odd and virtually undrinkable. Nasty.
