Hop-forward red ale brewed with Chinook, Mosaic and TNT hops. Honey and toffee flavors from the malts perfectly balance citrus, apricot and tropical fruit flavors of the hops.

From a standpoint, kind of weak. Much better to be had fro locals in the NW. Watery, weakfish, good color and body, but lacking....

4 oz draft pour at ChurchKey. Amber with off-white head. Aromas of citrus, floral notes, some sweet fruit. Tastes of citrus, light toast, caramel. Light body with a dry finish. Like the Red Line, needs a lot of work.
