Beer: Rollin' Dirty Red Ale

Brewery: Brewed for Tampa Bay Brew Bus by Cigar City Brewing, Tampa

Notes: Tampa Bay Brew Bus does tours of area beer hot spots. You buy a ticket and they drive your around, a much better option than drinking and driving. They decided to release their own beers, which are brewed for them by Cigar City.

It's a deep, deep ruby in color with a short head and a sweet, light malt aroma.  A mild taste of malt. Not much going on here.

Overall just an average brew. Can't really blame Cigar City for this since they were just the contract brewer.
