Commercial Description:
Is it really safe to paddle out in our waters? It’s impossible to know for sure. What we do know is that this is an incredibly distinctive and bold American red ale that attacks your taste buds with lethal amounts of hops, which are balanced by a boat load of Crystal malt. If none of this fazes you, then maybe swimming in the shark filled waters is exactly where you belong. We’ll see you in the lineup!

[At GABF 2004] An unclear copper colored beer with a beutiful orange head. The aroma is sweet hoppy with some grassy notes. The flavor is surprisingly malty considering the aroma, but still with strong notes of hops, and the alcohol content shines thru.

<i>Bottled at Akkurat, Stockholm. </i> Hazy roast red, brief head. Strong aroma of perfumy lychee with estery alcohol and roasty malt undeneath. Fairlysweet with some vanilla, roasty bread with butteer, slivoic and good amounts of grapefruit and mango. Warming and potent, yet slim. the bitterness is kept at relaxed levels in a chocolatey finish.
