Stoudt's Scarlett Lady: 21

Taste: 7 Finish: 8 Visual: 3 Aroma: 3
Total: 21

Scarlett Lady is an extra special bitter (ESB). It lives well up to its name. It has a nice amber color except it has a thin head with minimal carbonation. The aroma is of slight malt.

Upon first sip there is a medium malt flavor. It has a little bite around the edge of the tongue. As it washes over, the hops kick in the back and in the aftertaste. The bitterness is perfect. Enough bite to notice, but not nearly as much as a strong IPA.
