Commercial Description:
A wickedly tasty red ale packed with a massive hop flavor and full aroma from dry-hopping with whole flowers. Specially brewed with all European malts and West Coast whole flower hops. The result - a rich ruby red color, lacy collar and a feast of hop aroma!

Amber color, minimal head. Full flavored, malt, hop, caramel, nutty hints. Thicker palate. Not a beer a would look to find again.

12 oz. bottled May 08. Cloudy, dark copper with a three-finger head that lasts. Spicy caramel, orange-pineapple, and grapefruit aromas. Front flavors of caramel, grapefruit and pineapple, overtaken by a slightly rough finish of peppery-gingery resin with a touch of wood. Medium body is nicely balanced between sticky and watery, a little tingly with hops and warm with alcohol, and finishes dryish.

bottle. Pours a ruddy hazy deep red, middling average head. Sweet caramel and earthy fruity bitterness on the nose. Flavor follows the nose- starts with a medium helping of citric bitterness showing mostly grapefruit flavors, then follows with a smooth, sweet caramel maltiness. Palate is a bit on the watery side. Nothing stunning here, but nothing especially bad either.

Bottle - A unique name and label. There must be a really good story here. I let this beer warm a bit before opening. Amber colored pour with a very nice tan head. Big sweet raisin aroma. Incredibly complex flavor with hints of caramel, cream, tobacco and licorice. A bitter finish where the hops really come out. Perhaps this is called hedonism because the flavors are all over each other.

Amber with faint hop aroma and flavor. Palate was medium. Sampled at Stoudts 17th Annual Microfest: June 2008
