Commercial Description:
The pride of McGuire's! Our red ale was the first beer we brewed and remains our most popular. Beer gurus Michael Jackson and Fred Eckhardt have both praised its smooth and malty character. N.Brewer and Hallertau Hops are balanced by two row and caramel malts in our best selling ale.

On tap at Destin brewpub. Nice clean reddish-brown color, thin white head. Light wet grain aroma, touched by some earthy hops and caramel sweetness. Nice malt base with light piney hops assisting. Still tastes a bit thin.

Draught into mug at the Destin location. Another very still beer, not much going on with no real head. Aroma and flavour mostly malt with the hops showing up at the end. Average ale.

Pretty decent Irish red. Good balance of malt and hops. Nice light reddish-brown color. Clean aftertaste, not too offensive. For $1.88/draw (on a Wednesday night) not too bad.

Pours clear copper with nice half inch off white head and some cobweb lacing. Nice looking beer. The aroma is mild bringing up some sweet maltiness and faint vague hoppiness that seems to border on being pine in nature. The aroma is really light and tough to discern. The taste goes from lightly roasted malts to more medium roasted or 90L type crystal malts mixed with some pine hop bitterness. The feel is a bit thin but not too bad considering the style. The mild pine hop bitterness and medium roasted malts head right off into the finish and after taste. Tasty offering.

Draft at Florida Brewers Guild Beer Fest 2008. Full rating updated as soon as I am more coherent.
