Commercial Description:
Resinous hop character and bitterness balance the rich caramel malt base. We took it a step further and Amarillo dry hopped the brew to 45 IBUs, creating refreshing and savory hop flavors and aromas. Is it Red IPA? That’s your call.

Pour is a amber with a large soapy white head. Aroma is deffinatly pine hops with a nice biscuit malt. Flavor is again a very nice citrus hop with some caramel and dry malts. After the swallow is a nice resin of hop on the tounge as this goes down. A very tasty beer and probably the hoppiest damn amber ale you could ever have.

12oz bottle. thanks to justin as a nice bonus to a trade....pours a semi-transparent copper red with a moderate soapy white head....ctirusy hop nose with an adequate malt backing. more hops than malt which is nice....flavors have a citrus hope with a decent resiny bitter bite to it. pretty lively in the mouth with a medium mouthfeel. a really hoppy bitter amber. pretty nice.

12-oz. Dark amber, murky, almost brown. Thin gray rim. Big grapefruit-y nose. Creamy medium body. Grapefruity, pithy, peaty, biscuity mid-palate. Mild nutty, resiny finish. Wonderful stuff, and certainly one of the best ambers I have had.

Green Flash Hop Head Red is a cloudy, orangish red ale with particles in it. The off-white head fades to a film and leaves nice lacing. It has a fresh hop aroma, like juicy citrus. It has a medium-light body with low carbonation. It’s a little papery, but pretty smooth. The finish is loose. It’s nice and bitter, with notes of grapefruit peel and orange peel. It’s very top heavy, so I can’t really tell what’s going on with the malt. It’s pretty invigorating.

Poured a red amber color with a medium sized, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of toffee, floral hops, Amarillo, dark fruits, pine, light toast, and citrus. Taste of citrus fruits, grass, toast, caramel malts, and a hoppy finish.

Resinous, oily, pine, citrus hops blend well with toffee and caramel malt sweetness in the nose. Opaque burnished copper coloured body is topped by a generous and lasting fine bubbled, off white head that coats the glass with very nice lacing. Pungent and oily, resinous pine and citrus hops with aggressive bitterness in the flavour. Malt sweetness is quite subdued but emerges in the aftertaste before lingering bitterness returns. Medium body with moderate to strong carbonation that engages the tongue and cheeks. Tulip glass. Cellar temperature. Bottle purchased at Brewery Creek in Jan-09.
