Enjoyed on tap at Strange Matter in Richmond, VA. Didn't take tasting notes, but remember this being a good and rich malty red ale with a very red hue. Good stuff would have again.

4oz draft pour from sampler at Strangeways. Poured a very ruby red color, "fake blood" color I suppose. Aroma was a pleasant amount of citrus hop character. Floral hop cahracter. Flavor was semi-sweet, nicely balanced.
