Back in the day Red IPAs ruled. Haze in your beer? Absolutely not. We wanted caramel, we wanted C-hops and we wanted it red. We’ll have you know that Superflux and Steel & Oak are elder millennials, but we are old enough when no one was afraid of crystal malt. Call it old school, call it a comeback, call it a beer we hope will sell being that it’s not 2009 anymore...either way, OK BOOMER(ANG) is here to remind you of how IPAs used to hit.

Poured from 473mL can. Medium-dark mahogany brown with beige head. Piney resinous hops upfront with soft caramel malt underlay. Quite nice.

473mL can, pours a deep dark mahogany with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out lots of chewy resinous hops, a touch of pine, and a big caramel malt backbone. Flavour is much the same, revealing plenty of resinous hops, big caramel malt that borders on roast, finishing piney, bitter and dry. Sort of more like a black IPA than a red IPA with all that roast and bitterness. Excellent.
