Cigar City Dry Hopped Humidor Tocobaga Red Ale was something I had high expectations for since I line the regular Tocobaga Red Ale, but the dry hopping is just too much. Not much aroma; nice red pour. The bitterness from the dry hop washes out the roasted malt flavors one looks for in a red ale. The bitterness lingers on the palate. I’ll stick to the regular Tocobaga.

Tap at Redlight. Hazy amber pour with thick off white head. Huge piney citrus hop aroma, very dank and resinous. Taste is big smooth malt with tons of grapefruit hop bitterness and dank hops. Awesome! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Draft. Amber, off-white head. Nose is cedar, pine, citrus fruits. Taste is wood, juicy fruits, pine, hop resin. Juicy mouthfeel.

Poured an amber red color with tons of hops in the aroma with some spice and light caramel on the back end. Flavors are the same as the aromas with a kiss of citrus.

Pours amber. Nose is cedar, earthy and nice hop character. Flavor is much the same, the hops are softer than the nose would suggest. Loads of spicy cedar and sweet malt.

Pours a red brown with a thin white head. Aroma of Spanish cedar, spicy hops and citrus. Taste is smokey cedar, spice and citrus. Light and drinkable, hides the abv. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
