Next door to Whiskey River Ranch relaxing before this afternoon's festivities. Had this before on draft at the brewery and hotel. This will be from the bottle. In a plastic cup so no color description, short head. Sweet Amber malt aroma. The Amber malt flavor is there combining with a strong hop bitterness presence. Turns dry in the finish. Not liking this as much as I did on draft. Not enthusiastic to try again.

With family at Faust Brewing Company. Another in-house beer that is to benefit the New Braunfels professional firefighter association. Brownish color with a little bit of red amber. Aroma of raw dark wort. A thin texture with moderate softness. A rustic, raw bitter, turns dry. Finish of sharp earthy malt. Good beer but not my favorite red ale. Not as sweet as I like.
