The ale typically has a clear deep amber colour and aromas of sweet grapefruit and rich, sweet butterscotch. It offers flavours of caramel, toasted malts, floral hops, and tart cherry, resulting in a malty, caramel, toasty, and earthy taste profile.

Some reviews from BeerAdvocate describe the beer as having a "light brown body with a 1.5-finger tan head, decent lacing, and a sweet aroma of malts, toffee, and caramel." Another review mentions that the beer has "strong caramel malts with some grainy yeast presence and a semi-lingering, sweet finish."

The American Amber/Red Ale is a versatile beer that can be enjoyed by itself or paired with various foods, such as empanadas.
