On tap at the brewery. Pours hazy, amber with a lacy off-white head. Aroma of floral and citrus hops plus some caramel and cereal malts and bread. Flavor the same. Average texture. A decent red ale.

elmillero (7) - Granite City, Illinois, USA - JUL 27, 2012 does not count
Very good deep red color, no head. Mouthfeel is on the thin side. Does not linger, clean finish

rondphoto (979) - Lakeside Park, Kentucky, USA - MAY 23, 2012
Still, clear dark amber, no head, no lace. Strong caramel malt with a infiltration of currents and/or prunes. Quite distinctive (and tough for me to describe adequately), with a lightly hopped finish. Better than other Cumberland Brews I’ve had.

Has a deep red color, but little head. Very easy on the palate and almost goes down like a light amber.

Chudwick (1080) - Taylor Mill, Kentucky, USA - SEP 9, 2011
Draft in a pint glass - pours ambe with thin tan head and no visible lacing. Nose is malts. Aroma is roasted malts and caramel with a hint of hops. Tst is sweet and finishes a bit bitter. Not as hoppy as most beers from Cumberland. Mouth is oily. Not a bad beer but nothing exceptional. Would recommend this to this who like the style.

Copper red with a fizzy white head. Light molasses malt and cereal grain aroma and taste with a roasted grain finish.

decaturstevo (4075) - decatur, Tennessee, USA - JAN 6, 2011
Deep amber pour with creamy off white head and lace. Sweet caramel malt and light citrus. Caramel malt with a light citrus bitter. Medium bodied but fizzy.

I just had Cumberlands "Red Ale" and am guessing it is this. I agree with most of the people here that it was pretty, but ultimately boring. It didnt really smell or taste like much except a blunt but somewhat muted (if that makes any sense) bitterness coupled with a bland and amorphous malt character. Overall: not horrible by any means, just not special. There are better beers to try at Cumberland.

i had high hopes based on the gorgeous color. but it was ultimately underwhelming. apparently a result of too much crystal malt according to noblesquirrel.
