Nov 23, 2007 A good strong ale. The name is fitting based on how blood red the beer itself is. Nice and hoppy just the way I like it. Too bad it is just a seasonal. One of the best Midwest ASA I’ve found in my area.

Nov 20, 2007 This ale poured a cloudy dark orange colour with a dirty tan head. Similar to apple cider. To the nose it had scents of ripe fruit, dough, cider and some earthy notes...nutmeg??? First taste instantly had flavours of over steeped tea. Very hoppy palate with a bitter finish. Tea, tea and more tea flavours. Right through the palate. Speaking of which, it was very bitter.

Nov 20, 2007 This bottle is from Dec 01/06. The aroma is moderate hoppy. The head is creamy off-white, good lacing and mostly diminishing. The body is clear and amber brown in color. The initial flavor is back of the tongue bitter and a slight acetic, the finish is average. The body is light to medium, the texture watery and the carbonation soft. A good beer tht doesn’’t cellar very well.

Nov 19, 2007 Pours a deep copper color with good lacy and frothy head that fades quickly. Aroma if rich resinous pine and malt. Taste is big oily hops with abundance of pine and light caramel malt. Alcohol is pretty well concealed but still makes an appearance. Good stuff!

Nov 18, 2007 Yeah, this was a keeper - too bad its seasonal. Poured a deep copper. Pine cones in the nose. A decent rocky gold head with excellent lacing. Full palate. Pine on the font, honey malt in the middle, and a nice kick at the end. This is a very drinkable beer.

Nov 11, 2007 12-oz. Thanks, Pantanap! Rubied, luminescent, clear body. Dense but thin bubbly head. Very spotty lace. Very raspberry and brown sugar nose. Light to medium body, almost watery, very soft carb. Pie spice and borown sugar right from the attack; almost a dark wood note in there as well. Clingy spicy finish.
