Draft at Maria’s. Pours a deep red, quite clear with a frothy white head. Nose is freshly hoppy, citrusy and fruity. Toasty malt in the background as well. Very clean, light caramel that works. Taste is crisp and clean, moderate bitterness with rounded hop flavor, citrus. Low caramel and a toasty quality. Solid Amber.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Nice red ale, very easy on the nose and the bitter, citrus tinged hops are a pleasant surprise. If the alcohol was any higher I think it might be a little too much for what it is, which is essentially a slightly more interesting take on the drinkable red ale. Well worth a drink on a nice sunny day.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bright cooper color out of the tap with a sticky, creamy ivory head. Hoppy grapefruit nose. Very hop forward beer with aggressive grapefruit and pine flavors all over a strong caramel maltiness. Long grapefruit juice finish. If you like really hoppy ambers, here you go...
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
A good punch of bitter grapefruit up front with some nice fleshy grapefruit notes ( slightly sweet.) In the middle is a chewy malt with mild sweet notes. Rolls to the back with a bitter pine finish. The finish is dry. A very nice red ale - some similar notes to Founders Reds Rye, but not quite as good.
