Make no mistake about it, this beer was smooth and easy drinking. The style is “irish red ale”, however, it’s a bit on the dark side color wise.  A tribute to Bob Ross, the Joy of Painting, and the hours of trees and whispy clouds he painted on tv in my childhood. We slid a bit of a B3 growler into the label artwork as well…

And we still love the quote “Whatever makes you happy, you put in your world.”
