Red Sweater IPA is just as crisp and vibrant as the season that inspired this tasty beer. Notes of pine and grapefruit dance with the red malt to provide a smooth and refreshing mouthfeel. Grab your mittens and reach for something cold and refreshing. After all, it is sweater weather.

Deep copper body, medium to thin cream head. Crisp resinous nose with light toasted malts. Firm and sharp body with citrus peel and pine and just enough nutty, sweetish malt to provide flavor but not weigh the body down. Really nice job by Founders on this new seasonal offering.

Can from Busch's. Pours a deep chestnut to dark amber with a full finger of beige head that lingers. Caramel, pine resin and toasted malt aromas. Soft mouthfeel on the palate with a finish that leans malty. Toasted malt and caramel on the finish.
