Dan pops open another Burnished from Return Brewing care of his brother-in-law while dissects it and is dreaming of food pairings.
Return Brewing Burnished
STYLE: Red Ale – American Amber / Red
ABV: 5.2%
IBU: N/A
AVAILABILITY: 16 oz. cans/Draft (Limited)
Stats above taken from the brewery’s can and website.
Appearance
Beautiful caramel/red in color with a nice fluffy, off-white head.
Aroma
Caramel and fruit continue on the nose.
Taste
Nostalgic amber feel with caramel and a hint of cherry and some residual hop notes on the finish.
Mouthfeel
Light to medium body with soft/foamy carbonation.
Overall
This is a session ale, in my opinion, and I would have no issues throwing these back at a bar or wherever I am at. I was feeling lighter barbecued meats and pizza, but nothing too over the top so you can enjoy all the nuances of the brew in hand.
Cheers and remember:
Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.
All music on this show came to us from the now defunct Music Alley.
