I.P.A. divina quasi un pò duble ipa! Gran colpo di culo trovarla! Fantastica!

Rogue makes the best red ales. Excellent sweet toffee roasty grain malt with spruce hop bitterness keeping it all in check

Très bonne bière rousse...forte en alcool et bien houblonné. Dégusté lors des mes vacances à cape May!

Pours cloudy dark brown, auburn, with a two-finger off-white head. Smells floral with some citrus notes and then a malty character. Tastes hoppy and bitter with some malty undertones and faint alcohol notes. Medium-bodied with a creamy texture and decent mouth-carbonation, Rogue Captain Sig’s Deadliest Ale finishes nicely bitter.

reddish brown pour with a lot of off white head. floral and hoppy notes on the nose.hoppy flavor with a brief hint of citrus. bitterness lingers a little bit on the palate but it is very pleasant. finishes with a little bit of a caramel sweetness.

Pours a cloudy dark amber to red colour, somewhat opaque. Citrus and pine in the nose, no malt apparent, maybe sampling a bit cold..Whaps you with big hops and a piney finish, this is a hop-head beer. Medium bodied, huge hops. Tastes like a mouthful of chinooks.. Big hop beer low in malt taste. Recommended to cleanse the palate after a Bud. Never had a Rogue I didn’t like!

Nice and big citrus nose. Nice cloudy red color with a real nice, frothy head. Rich and caramelly, lots of doughiness from the pacman, some sugar and a touch of chocolate roast mixes terrifically with the citric nature of the cascades and amarillos. Mild spice in the swallow. This is a top-flight red and probably my favorite rogue. More please!

Rogue Captain Sig’s Northwestern Ale is a solid, hazy, red ale with a dense, creamy, yellowish head that leaves tenacious lacing on the glass. It has a strong, hoppy aroma of wood resin and pine needles. There’s something fruity like pineapple in there. It’s nice and full bodied and incredibly smooth with a clean, dry finish. It’s a well blended and well balanced flavor. It almost seems a touch sweet at first, with the carmelly malt tones and the candy-like hop oils. The bitterness becomes more agressive and green. It becomes green and medicinal-- almost minty-- at the finish. Wow, these guys really know how to make red ales.

Yum. Pours deep red, and has an average amount of head. Smells of deep red, citrus, bready. The taste leans to the red as well with nice mouthfeel of yeast red malt and citrus. The citrus really pops on this one, much like at IPA, very crisp. The finish is plenty of hop character almost to the point of sour. I think they almost knocked me over. Great full-bodied ale.

Presentation: It was poured from a brown 1 pint, 6oz bottle into a tulip glass. The bottle has nice list of ingredients use including the malts and hops. The IBUs are listed at 80 but there is no ABV% or freshness date. Appearance: On top of a dark and very hazy burgundy body sits a big rocky or frothy head. It is light tan in color and very clingy. Thick lacey patterns stick everywhere on the glass. Smell: The aroma has a heavy pine like hop presence right as I open the bottle. Underneath the bold hops are solid rich malty sweet notes. Taste/Palate: Up first on the tongue are nice piney hop flavor notes with some hints of herbal, almost tea like, hops. The rich sweet maltiness backs this hop bitterness up and offers a good solid bass of bready flavor and sweetness. The finish has a very slow herbal and citrus hops fade that lingers on the tongue. Its palate has a smooth yet lively texture. Notes: Mmmmm yes this is very good and puts me in the mood for some crab fishing action!!! Cheers!!!
