Common descriptors are
A wonderful hoppy and flavorful double red ale designed to help our brewer’s wife enjoy her birthday and the holiday season. Crystal malt gives it a deep copper hue and full bodied caramel sweetness, while dry hopping in the serving tank gives a big floral hop contribution. It has a long bitter finish with some alcohol warmth. This batch was aged for an additional 4 months in bourbon barrels.
