Erie Brewing Company - Railbender Ale Review





Type: Scottish Style Ale

ABV: 6.8%

Color: Dark mahogany brown with lighter highlights at the bottom...Minimal white head that is gone very quickly.

Aroma: Very basic smell of malt, with no bitterness, floral, or fruitiness noticed at all.

Taste: Nice emphisized malt up front with a hint of sweet sugars and a smidge of caramel. Subtle hoppiness that is very light and the aftertaste lingers on the tongue pleasantly

Overall: Nice medium body brew that puts the focus on malt. There is almost a good balance between the maltiness and the bitterness, but the malt wins out. Very enjoyable and can easily be over-enjoyed due to its ease of drinkability.

Score: 7.8/10
