Brewed with Red X, the super clean base malt
and some melanoiden balances the dank, citrus,
and tropical qualities of Idaho 7, Centennial, and
Citra hops. A small amount of Carafa is used to
ensure that we nail that striking ruby red color that
tends to elude many brewers.

355ml can. Deep red amber colour with a beige-tan head. malty, caramel, toffee, hops. Taste: malty, sweet caramel and toffee, light fruity hops and light spicy rye notes, bitter finish, becoming astringent. Medium body, average carbonation. Not bad but not what I expected from the name - this was very malt-forward.

On tap at mother earth brewing Nampa. Pours out a crisp burnt orange amber color topped with a white head. Nose is nice pine citrus hops along with a sweet caramel malt. Taste is more of the nice hop combo a very nice balance.

Medium sweet flavour with lightly toasted brown bread, more leathery berries. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with more brown bread, some earth, aged pine. Pretty so so.
