2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 CJ_Pain (218) - Georgia, USA - JAN 24, 2015
A hoppy Amber sounds simplistic but alas most breweries IMHO misfire on this style so it must be more complex than it seems. Southbound is no exception, not a bad beer but another Amber ale hopped up that just doesn't mesh well.

3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 ChainGangGuy (4568) - Marietta, Georgia, USA - NOV 26, 2014
22 ounce bottle - $7.99 at Bullocks Wine & Spirits in Marietta, Georgia.
Released __ 20/__. Looks like somebody forgot to fill out the label.
Appearance: Reddish body, chiefly clearish, with a white head that falls just shy of an inch. Good lacing.
Smell: Toasted sugars, crisped bread, grapefruit and tangerine, a moderate earthy spiciness, small hint of cotton candy, and a tiny spritz of alcohol.
Taste: Toasty breadcrusts with a sweet twinge of caramel. Citrusy American hops with a little spiciness giving a touch of spiced charred tangerines. Medium-plus bitterness. As with the nose, a little touch of cotton candy, just like at the county fair. Slightly warming, slightly drying, bittersweet finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-plus body. Medium carbonation.
Overall: A good, old-fashioned bitter, citrusy brew of comparable strength. The hops dont quite run away with the show with a brutal amount of bitterness, as theres an ample maltiness. Fairly good overall.
4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 Jamesthebrit (371) - Atlanta, Georgia, USA - OCT 30, 2014
Shirt I would have taken a picture of this but I already ripped,off the label for a pumpkin... Oh well.mi may have another soon.
Aroma is hoppy. An earthy citrus note. Tree sap.
Looks good! Red hazy. Nice white head.
Taste is also very solid. Sappy. Hoppy. Hops hit heavy in the middle and fade well but in the end linger a bit long. A hint of bubblegum.
Pallet is heavy. Very very smooth mouthfeel. Gotta dock it a point because the hops take a little too long to fade. Otherwise very nice. You know what... Its really not bad enough. And the rest of it is so smooth.
This is a really good beer. Its not super crazy hop explosion but is still very hoppy. Its heavy on the palate but the finish is dry so its still very drinkable. Lots of good flavors but still relatively simple. A great beer.

Pours a deep amber color as would be expected for a red ale. Taste is excellent with Columbus, centennial, simcoe, Chinook, Amarillo & cascade hops are balanced perfectly
