Erie Brewing Railbender Ale

Erie Brewing’s most recognized beer always offers a smooth, sweet taste. Clearly, a home-town favorite

Very smooth beer that should be drank from a glass. Very much enjoyed this beer. Not an overly complex beer, but a very solid beer.

Very hoppy beer poured from draught. This bottle was very bitter for me but drinkable. I would rate this as a good ale in any competition.

I have had better but this was nonetheless a good ale not really an old ale. Tastes of caramel and hops with a nice amber orange colour its enjoyable.

Great drinkable beer, full malt flavor with a kick. Has a nice amber color with a soft hop flavor. Finish is light but not watered down.

On tap at Brew Garden in Clearwater. I really liked this beer. The aroma is definately malty--close your eyes, and you’d think you were about to dig into a chocolate malt, not a beer. Light head. Nice mouthful--lighter and less sweet than the aroma would imply. If you like a sweeter, malty beer, this is a good one.

An excellent rendition of a Scottish ale, as judged (from the bottled version) by this expatriate Scot. Clearly this isn’t one of the most distinguished beers around, but it’s hard to find a better option as one’s regular pint -- interspersed, of course, with posher stuff other days.
