COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Inferno Red is a beautiful dark, ruby red ale. Pungent and fruity in aroma and taste, this American style pale ale packs a noticeable hoppy and alcohol punch combined with plenty of zip and tang. A "big" beer that will talk to your taste buds. Not recommended for the recently weaned American Pilsner beer drinker.

Hmmm. I think this one had more hop than their IPA! More brownish than red, it looks like it may have had a problem at the filtering stage. Drinkable when it’s cold, but when warming up a tad it was really rough going. I’d rate this one just slightly a notch above macro swill sold to the masses.

Brown, malty, hoppy, piney, sweet, alcohol. Not a good red, I couldn’t finish a pint.

The bottle says "A Sandwich In Every Glass", appearantly I got the grape skin with teabag sandwich. Hazy dark-brown in colour, thin tan head. Modest malt, sparse hops. Hopefully the sink will like this better than me.

Pours brown with big head on top. This was obviously meant to be a big bold ale... The problem is the balance is way off. Very sweet with a strong alcohol punch. Buts that’s about it- just sugar and alcohol.

When I had this I thought it was an IPA. It tastes like one that's for sure. The hops just jump out at you. It's not a red ale though. I didn't think it was too bad. It's very strong though.

Muddy brown color, small head. Malty and very hoppy. Muddy taste. Not sure what this stuff is, but it isn’t very good. Harsh tasting, overly hopped with not enough malts to balance them. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is harsh. Aftertaste is very bitter. Need to brush my teeth. Don’t know what’s worse, that I still have 5 bottles of this swill left, or I spent $7 for a sixer. They built this brewery in a old burnt out theater and I’m kind of hoping for another fire… Wish I had seen user_ex review BEFORE I bought this SWILL.

This is not red. It’s a chocolatey brown cloudy liquid with a thin head. It smells nice though -- citic and bushy. The body is medium to heavy with light medium effervescence. After the the initial aroma the beer is muddy or dusty in scent. It’s a hardy, well-hopped brew with only belches belying what must be Cascade hops. There is a very subtle wet cardboard and what would become a shoe smell.
