COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Crafted from a heady blend of English & domestic style malts, combined with a bodacious infusion of Pacific Northwest hops, Big Red is a sinfully delicious session brew. Big Red’s malt backbone lends a smoothness and balances the impressive hoppy tones added through the kettle & dry hopping process. Its citrus aroma, brilliant medium-copper color, and long standing foam provide a most satisfying sensory impression. Not astringent or sweet, Big Red Beaver is an IPA you can enjoy day or night . After one taste you’re sure to say "bottoms up".

Cletus (6177) - Connecticut, USA - DEC 26, 2012

Pours dark copper with an off white head. Smells of cereal and some light fruity undertones. Tastes breaddy with an earthy finish. Fun label, boring beer.

joebudzjoe (621) - Connecticut, USA - OCT 20, 2012

Always willing to support local breweries, this beer just doesn’t do it for me. Overly bready and difficult to drink, the hop/malt flavors are suggested, but no real notes apparent. Not a bad beer, but not much going for it.

jkwood04 (2291) - Connecticut, USA - JUN 4, 2012

12oz bottle in a tulip. Pours deep ruby/amber with a lacy, cream-colored head. Aroma of citrusy and floral hops plus a decent amount of caramel malts with a little toffee. Flavor the same. Average texture. Not bad for a standard IPA.
