UNCCTF (461), Kannapolis, North Carolina, USA Mar 9, 2003 Nice red color with a slightly off-white head. Aroma dominated by hops. Taste was good at first, but the bitter aftertaste really squashed it. If it had just a little bit less hops, it'd be awesome instead of just plain average.
Dmalone102 (131), Denver, Colorado, USA Dec 27, 2008 Thoruoghbred red has a good malt hop balance. There are mostly bittering hops present, no real hoppy flavor that I like in red ales. MaltDawg (377), Richmond, Virginia, USA Oct 15, 2008 Date: 10/4/2008 Source:Hops Restaurant and Brewery Sampler at the brewery. Very slight malt/grain aroma. Clear amber with small white head. Moderate fruity floral hop notes over very grainy pale malt profile. Medium body and mouthfeel. Finish is slightly peppery and fairly bitter. UnholyBrewing (334), Melbourne, Australia Aug 14, 2008 ...sampler at gainesville location. Nothin special here, typical american amber lager. Had small white head that faded, rice and malt flavor, with a dry finish. Poor attempt. Immy (1652), Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA Jun 21, 2008 On tap at the Newington, CT. brewpub, listed as Thoroughbred Red. Clear dark red/amber with an off white head. Nice, malty sweet nose, a touch of wood, and nuts. None of the metallic crap I find so common in beers like this. Sweet, nutty malt flavors. Not bad! daknole (1275), Plantation, Florida, USA Jun 11, 2008 I used to mix this with their stout to make an intersting brew that was better than any of their beers by themselves. This was your typical Amercian red. Maybe a tad more flavor than Kilians.
