The deep red color gives you a hint of this ale's full flavor. Its rich maltiness comes from Crystal and Vienna malts. Golding and Cascade hops give it a subtle, bitter finish. Caution: at 8% alcohol, this beer's got horsepower!

"probably their most popular beer A) because it's a malt bomb, so macro beer drinkers that are afraid of hops will love it, and B) it's 8 freakin percent, so frat boys looking to get drunk quicker like it. That being said, even though I love my hops, this is a pretty stinkin good beer. Unbalanced, yes, but the flavor, mouthfeel, and aroma or all carmely, malty good! the best of their regular rotation."

"I am no great ale fan, and red ales are way up on my missit list. Along comes Red Roadster, and I got to say this is by far the best red ale I have had the pleasure to drink. Fullbody, balanced flavor and 8%. Lives up to the bill of high horsepower brew. If this was in bottles, it would be always in my reefer. When in Reno, Silver Peak is a must."

"A good malty ale with a distinctly sweet and nutty flavor and rich, dark brown color. Not quite as well balanced as I would have liked in an 8% and was slightly over carbonated."
