ChainGangGuy (3682) - Canton, Georgia, USA - SEP 15, 2008
Appearance: Red-amber body with a small, fizzy, off-white head. Highly effervescent. Why so gosh-darned fizzy, Aruba Red? Smell: Unimpressive, mild aroma smelling of toasted grains. Taste: Lightly toasted maltiness with a fair amount of sweetness. Very faint spicy hops with an almost imperceptible bitterness. Finishes with a lingering taste of shabby, flabby grains. Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Fizzy, biting carbonation. Too fizzy, in fact, this thing is like a beer-flavored soda. Drinkability: Overall, it’s a bit reminiscient of Killian’s. Easy drinking, but the high level of carbonation leaves you belching into tomorrow. Come to Bahama Breeze for the food, not for the beer.

Draft @ Bahama Breeze - sweet malty toastiness boring bland and has no finish. Nothing bad but nothing exciting. Easy to drink and goes with pretty much everything on the menu.

Ok so I had no idea that this was a AB product...but even without knowing it I haven’t really thought much of it the few times I have had it at Bahama Breeze in Sunrise, FL. Amber color pour with a malty and boring aroma. The flavor is even more boring thant he aroma. Kind of sweet wtih malt tones and very little hops. Skip it please!

ln a place where all of the tap handles are Macros, you just know that this beer has to suck ass. Served in a 2Ooz glass. Pours a clear, amber color. Egg-shell colored, creamy head. Aroma has a light caramel, toffee notes. The flavor is quite impressive. Rich deep caramel malt character. Surprisingly flavorfull. Calming hop bitterness creates the perfect balance to this refreshing brew. Sticky sweetness and hop flavors linger on the palate. Why can’t the other A-B beers be so rewarding. Damn, I really enjoyed this beer. Cheers. 4,4,8,5,15

UPDATED: SEP 14, 2008 Good beer this one. Resembles a red irish beer. Good taste and body, still refreshing. They served ice cold (bahama Breeze), perfect.
