A 12oz single as part of the $7.99 mixed pack at Mac’s Midtown, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Pour is an encouraging, crystal clear, deep brown color. Nice head and lace. Very malty nose and initial tastes, but these give way to a bitter hop finish.
The initial character was a little spice, with some sweet malts, but as the beer warms and toward the finish the beer took on much more of the advertised, Amber/Red character.
I had fairly low expectations here but in the end I was very happy with the beer. Tasty and balanced I thought.
