Phatz (225), Paradise, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 1, 2006 This was actually surprisingly good. Very well done Otto’s!
Appearance: Served an amber read color in a pint glass.
Smell: Hoppy amber caramel aroma, with hints of fruitiness and bitterness.
Taste: This beer was similar to how I remembered St. Rogue Red with sweet malts through the center, and crisp edges with a bitter hop kick.
Mouthfeel: The medium body it thin-ish but zippy enough to feel bigger than the body would suggest.
Drinkability: This is a very easy sessionable beer!
Hope this is helpful.
Cheers!
DocLock (4083), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 21, 2004 This is a great red ale. Pours deep amber/red, with aroma of toffee, malt, caramel, and slight red wine. Tastes very malty, with a finishing blast of hops, toffee, and cabernet to the posterior papillae. Awesome! Dacrza (148), Great Meadows, New Jersey, USA Mar 31, 2008 ANOTHER prize for my fantasy excellence courtesy of Ryan...22 oz. bottle... dark brown body with oddly carbonated head...head is white and thin and flattens quickly...hops flourish early, bright and sprucey...medium-to-full bodied and effervescent--strong around the tongue and vibrant, almost demanding...a crisp, malty presence--no frills, full-on balance of the bitter and the sweet...Otto’s continues to deliver, after having my school twained by the Jolly Roger and my tongue singed by the Double D...a memorable and enjoyable way to welcome March--like the month, lion and lamb in one...rating would be higher if the opening and closing experiences matched urbeer (40), Lo, Belgium Jun 30, 2008 Thx to brad. Bottle 1pt 6fl oz. Poured a clear reddish ale with a nice creamy head. Nice hoppy aroma with hints of pine, and some grapefruits. A malty flavour that I like very much, with hints of caramel, some fruits. Medium bodied and well balanced, nice carbonation.
jeffc666 (1820), Fairfax, Virginia, USA Aug 1, 2003 A very nice Amber. Reddish and clear. Smallish off-white head. Toasted malt aroma. Taste is more complex, sweetness balanced with roasted nuttyness. Medium bodied with nice clean malt finish. Good stuff.
