The Centennial hop is the centerpiece of our American Red Ale. Reprise pushes the limits of a single hop with an amazing bouquet and stunning bitterness all the way through. The citrus character provides an experience you will want to repeat. Reprise is crimson in color with aromas of citrus fruit and biscuit malts.

Pour is a dark amber with a small white head. Aroma is of oily caramel malt. Flavor is more of the caramel malt. Finish has some very minimal herbal hop. This was ok but nothing great at the same time. A bit heavier malt presence than most other amber ales.

12oz can. Maybe too old? Caramel-vanilla-cherry amber malt tones. I guess it is an Amber, but I am really not feeling it. Has a decent hop balance but the overall malts aren’t that pleasant. OK. Stale caramel tones kill it for me.

Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours a clear deep amber with a near white head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma combines sweet grains and grassy hops with a bit of pine bite. Flavor has a bit of citrus, pine and grass with a nice grain backing.

Bottle courtesy of a traveling friend. Sweet orange, buttery caramel, and spicy resinous sprucy hops aroma. Clear amber with a large ivory head. Resinous woody piney hops (almost like sawdust - in a good way), slightly sweet bready caramel malt flavor. Medium body, average carbonation. Nice and hoppy with a good solid malt backbone.

750ml bottle pours a slightly hazy brick red with some very active, off white head. Nose of hop pellets, soap, some malt, lemon, orange. Flavor is malty, piney, bitter, oranges, apple, caramel, orange peel, a little vegetal. Dry, spritzy finish.

Bomber. Pours a nice copper (more orange than red to my eyes) with a very large frothy head that sticks around for a long time. Aromas are a nice mix of pine and pineapple with just a hint of caramel and brown sugar. Flavor is alright, but not my favorite. The beer starts off kind of watery, then transitions to a very quick caramel flavor, and finally settles on a pine and resin finish. I guess it gets better as it warms a bit and the wateriness seems to settle out, but something about the initial hit on the palate could be better in my book.
