…how did we end up in this situation?

Plenty of blame to go around for sure, but we’re going to have to formulate our way out of this mess. Beer climates change, seasons creep but the liquid must remain cyc. Hey man, it is all about the %*@#ing formulation. Now that’s Mad Science.

In a converted garage laboratory in BKLYN, a glint of brazen red beer was created to melt down winter beer as we know it. GLOBAL WARMER harnesses the natural deliciousness of beer’s essential ingredients, in a raw, unfiltered formulation designed to beat back raging storm clouds. It's a different sort of winter beer for a changing globe.

Growler at home. Almost clear reddish-amber pour with an off-white head. Notes of citrus hops, light resin, grapefruit, lemon zest, honey. Very smooth, oily texture, medium carbonation, medium body and a hoppy bitter-sweet finish. Good! --- Beer merged from original tick of Sixpoint Global Warmer on 24 Mar 2017 at 22:12 - Score: 8.

Amber ale? wtf lol. This is "american strong ale" territory just a bit low in ABV, but at 7% and aggressively hopped, it’s not an amber. Big hop nose, very grapefruit rind, little hint of resin. Orangey-amber color. Vinous sweet caramel malt flavors alongside a spicy resiny citrus-rind hop flavor and pronounced pithy bitterness. Semi-dry finish. A little malt sweetness would make this an interesting old fashioned barleywine.
