Poured from bomber a deep, somewhat coppery reddish brown with a thick and frothy pale tan head. Aroma of prickley pines, earthy hops, caramel, bread, and some spices and black pepper. Flavour was of malts with lots of grains, toast and a light dirty citrus hoppiness. Solid red ale. Thanks Ed (Doughboy)

Poured a deep amber red almost brown color from the 22 ounce bottle with aromas of sweet bread, caramel, light hops, a touch of fruit and some light bitterness. Flavors match the aromas with some maltiness and booze in the aftertaste.

22 oz. bottle courtesy of dunn4040. Pours a mostly clear red with a large tan head that lasted until nearly mid-glass and left partial lace. Pleasant aroma of malt and caramel with a few citrus notes as well. The flavor is malt and caramel, but only lightly sweet. Dries out a bit towards the finish and is less sweet. A bit of bread towards the finish. Mild bitterness. Medium bodied. No problems.

2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 CJ_Pain (218) - Georgia, USA - MAR 12, 2014
A different kind of Amber than I expected. Appearance was awesome followed by average aroma in the nose. Malt backbone, while present, didnt leave any trace of mild sweetness that I expect in an amber. Had a little too much Irish red going on, though jailhouse releasing this "summer" seasonal around st pattys day(2014) maybe is what they had in mind. Bottle says 8% alcohol which is bordering on Imperial Amber status which this brew is not. Not a bad beer, just an average brew with an identity crisis.
