Commercial Description:
Irish Red Lager
Named for Steves' friend Ed Lewis, who has been building canoes and paddles in this area for many years and who built Steve his custom mash paddle for the brewery. Deep red in color, this beer has a nice maltiness balanced with an English hop bitterness in the finish.

Tasted 4/27/08. 6oz sample from the brewpub. Big bubbled. Filtered with an amber ruby hue. Slight nose. So crisp. So smooth. Touch soggy hops. Medium bodied. Good hop profile and very well melded. Mild effervescence. Mild toast. Spicy with a slight smokey character. Totally solid! My second favorite from this brewery.

Very dark amber pour. Earth/floral hops upfront with pretty decent sweet caramel/toffee maltiness as a bottom. OK

From a growler a day after getting one. The body was dark amber and copper . The aroma was earthy with some floral hops. There was also toffee and iced tea. The taste was black tea with some oranges and light potatoes. A pretty good version of a style I don’t usually like.

Draft at the brewery. Amber/light brown body with small off white head. The hop character was earthy. Dry with little alcohol present.

On tap at The Livery. Amber/reddish color with medium white head. Aroma of malt and grass/earth hops. Biscuit in the flavor. Palate was both a bit watery and dry. Overall it was ok.
