3.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Visually, this ale is very interesting. It has a nice hazy dark orange color with a thick creamy off white head. The aroma is a bit cereal and a little ammonia. Medium body= the malts are nice but then outdone by bitterness. The hops are somewhat stale & outshined by the bitterness as well, but they are a moderate grassy tone. Not exceptional, malts in a cascadian dark ale balance the hops better. 8.19 BD
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Very similar to Ninkasi's Believer Double Red (although a little less malty) this beer features some nice toasty malt with a hop profile similar to an ipa. A great hybrid style that keeps things interesting.

500ml bottle from Trader Joes in Salem.
$3.79
Amber coloured body,slight haze, with a nice sized bubbly white head.
Spicy semi sweet maltiness with a slight but obvious resinous hop.
Taste is very balanced..between the toffee flvoured malts and the resinous/spicy hop. Nice
Good mouthfeel low carbonation and great after tastes.
A good beer..but i have this IMO as an amber ale!
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Can’t believe I haven’t rated this before. Now that I have had a few to compare, this latest taste from their cool returnable bottles seems lighter than past efforts. More floral and fruity while still holding onto a medium hop kick.
