Red MacGregor is in the same category as a Smithwicks but the Red i more bitter and more complex, This is some guys review from Beer Advocate that is a little over the top but describes it.
Ruby red and clear. An unusually white head (given the color of the beer) that was nice and foamy.
Bitter with a nice cherry taste that balanced very well with the malty backbone.
A touch thin, medium carbonation and a pleasant amount of lingering bitter cherry in the aftertaste
Probably my favorite Scottish Ale to date. Very enjoyable beer!
