The beer is a rich, clear, red color that is topped by a frothy, tan colored head. The aroma smells of hoppy grapefruit, slight herbal notes, some pine, and, as it warms some berry-like notes, and a hint of alcohol. The malt character here plays second fiddle to the hops (something I wasn’t expecting, but still contributes aroma of toast, caramelized nuts, and whole grain cracker notes.
The taste is quite hoppy as well with flavors of grapefruit, and lychee up front. Alcohol, subdued malt, and a supporting caramel maltiness as well as a toasted, nutty maltiness also plays a role here. In the end this is a bit too alcoholic leaning to be great, but it is still quite tasty and definitely good.

A clear golden-like lager color. Good thick head. Thick malty aroma. Strong bitter flavor underbalanced by the malt. Floral, bitter flavor and finish. Pretty damn good actually, for a starter only.

Pours a red and copper color with aroma of malt. Taste is very malty with a distinct hop taste to it. This beer is too hoppy for an imperial red, more like an IPA.

Malt, nut, and pine hops in the aroma. Flavor starts sweet with caramel, then finishes with pine hops, fruit, and alcohol. Overall a pretty good effort from a decent brewpub.

3/11/13. On tap in Jax - St. John Town Center. Mostly clear light red/amber pour with a nice khaki head tbat cuts to a few millimeters but lasts and laces well. Maltiness, caramel, and alcohol hit the nose with a dash of pine and dank hoppiness. Rich malty flavor with a decent bitter, dank hop kick and another dose of alcohol. Eh.
