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.

Today: Poured into tulip glass, the 2 finger head begins to build and the aromas are released, settles down into a creamy froth and lacing, cloudy dark reddish brown like a mahagony stain, very nice color, rich..., strong pungancy of pine, citrus and grass backed by some roasted malts, taste of bittered hops hit the tongue with a background of caramel toffee then the nice linger bittering finish, palate is smooth and tingly, but not harsh.... a nice quaffer.

Bottle. Amber/reddish pour with off-white foamy head. Diminishes into a slick of lace. Hops and spice on the nose. Hops dominate upfront, all bitterness in the initial taste then gives way for maltiness. Not balanced, but it does well not to be. Medium mouthfeel. Good beer, but not worth the $14.99 I paid for the six-pack. Better beer around for less.

Pours red amber with tall creamy head that lasts a long time. Piney, resin hop aroma detectable from a foot away. This one is amazing! Resin hops with a hugely bitter finish and a decent malt backbone -- one of my new favorites. Stupendous.

On tap at the Oregon Brewers Festival. A very nice red, which often aren’t my favorite. Nice hops though!

Sample @ the brewery. Pours a gorgeous caramel/red color with a medium-sized off-white head. Aroma is pine hops with detectable caramel and malt as well. Taste is largely malt and caramel sweetness with a heavy bite of hops at the end of the beer. Well done, very well done.

OBF ’08 I truly heart Green Flash Brewing, always great. It is very nice red with a great hop profile.

Deep red in color with a creme color mid-size head. Piney aroma is stiff in the nose. Initial taste is very enjoyable with a creamy flavor of hops and carmelized sugar. Slow hop filled finish

The red beer pours the rich caramel color of a nice port with a creamy off white head. The nose is a mix of light alcohol and hops. The taste is hops, burnt sugar and malts. The finish is nice and somewhat drawn out.
