Commercial Description:
Red Truck IPA is an American India Pale Ale, generously dry hopped to give this beer a full hop aroma and flavor, but with a strong caramel malt profile that balances the intense hop flavor and aroma with a slight sweetness that makes this beer a rich experience in flavor.

Thanks Logan. Bright amber body with a fading, sudsy off-white head. Aroma of nice deep woodsy hops, mild citrus, a note of cinnamon, and some sweet crystal malt. Flavor includes tea notes with good malt character and medium bitterness. The hops seem a little faded here. Good overall. Could be great fresh.

Thanks to whaleman. Pours a slightly hazy orange amber with an off white lightly lacing head. Aroma of orange, pine and a sweet caramel malt balance. Flavor of piney hops and some citrus. Very decent IPA.

Pours a filtered deep amber with long-lasting white head. Aroma is caramel and cookie malt with a very lite touch of grapefruity hops. Needs way more hop aroma. Med. bodied. Fragrant floral hop flavors are well balnced with the malts but this is leaning way too hard on the malts for an IPA. I have had many Pale ale with more hops than this. Finish is med. bitter but not dry at all. Nice beer but not really much of an IPA.

Perfumy hops, borderline cologne. Sweet front. Standard tingling carbonation. Moderate bitterness in the finish, progressively building as I drank. Unexceptional appearance.

Bottle. Golden amber in colour. Aroma of floral and citrus hops (grapefruit) and light pine needles. The flavour was of light citrus (grapefruit, oranges), bready malts, earthy. Bitter mouthfeel, medium-light body, high carbonation. Finishes with a long lingering bitterness. Nice. Thanks Crosling.
