Split Rock Brewing Co. Red Sky Red Rye – American Amber / Red Ale at 4.8% ABV

Split Rock Brewing Co. Red Sky Red Rye – American Amber / Red Ale at 4.8% ABV (C$3.92 at NLC Stavanger, 473 ml, packaged on 18-Feb-2020, acquired 9-Jul-2020, reviewed 20-Jul-2020)

Appearance: clear medium amber with a short, short-lived loose beige head, minimal spotty lacing. (3/5) Aroma: toffee, stewed fruits, light grainy rye, earth, hint of grass. (6/10) Taste: moderate-high sweet, moderate-low bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium slightly slick body, moderate carbonation, sweetish moderate bitter finish. (3/5)

A pretty plain-Jane Amber / Red. To be honest, I was hoping for more spicy rye, to relieve the tedium of toffee and generalized fruit, but it was not to be. OK, but booooring. (12/20)

6/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
