COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This blood-red ale may not be what you might expect from a malty and hoppy craft beer. Evil Twin has a rich malt character, without being overly sweet. It has a huge hop character, without being overly bitter. It is a great example of a bold, rich, balanced craft beer, without being heavy and hard to drink in quantity. Our Evil Twin is only bad because it is too good to resist.

brenn79 (1198) - Idaho, USA - APR 22, 2012
22 oz. bottle- Pours hazy ruby red with a nice two finger off white creamy head. The aroma is spicy hops, it smells like a west coast IPA, very hoppy. The taste is a nice blend of piney hops and a red ale, it could be more assertive, the hops are there, but I think the malt is kind of bland. Body is medium, but lighter than expected, and the carbonation is medium. Overall not bad, but nothing I would seek out again, the Heretic evil cousin is much better.

iowaherkeye (2636) - Ocean Beach, San Diego, California, USA - APR 2, 2012
22oz bomber, no date for $5.99 at Olive Tree Marketplace. Clear brownish red with a one finger creamy light tan head, nice retention. Dry caramel and toasty toffee provides the backbone to an otherwise floral citrus (and some sweaty Cascade) hop nose, tinge of earth behind. Flavor adds some green dry hops, and the hops do seem a bit brighter than the aroma led on. Pretty well attenuated, just some mild sweetness from the caramel/toffee. Dry with bitterness peaking at a 3ish, thank you for not making it stupid bitter. Smooth moderate carbonation with a medium body. Quite solid, and better than I thought it’d be, as I’m not usually a fan of the hoppy toffee malt thing.
