Goose Island’s Kilgubbin Red Ale is a mild, red-colored beer with a thick, creamy head. The taste is pretty smooth for the most part, but rather difficult for me to characterize. There’s a bit of a bite at the finish, but it’s not the bitterness of hops. Rather, it’s some sort of unusual spice. Cinnamon? Pepper? I’m not sure. But all in all, it makes a good session beer. I enjoyed two of them last night.

Update: A quick visit to the website informs me that the spicy finish is due to malted rye.
