355 ml. bottle, Hazy, amber-deep red colour with a big, fluffy off-white head. Fruity aroma with lots of citrus and resin hops, a solid amount of caramel malts and grapefruits. Taste is bitter. Medium body, creamy texture, average carbonation. Finishes bitter with rich caramel malts, sweet fruits and lots of citrus and resin hops. Very good amber.

Bottle at McNellies. Pours a clear light amber with a light brown head that lasts throughout the beer and laces. Aroma has notes of pine and resin with a bit of grass and earthy grains. Flavor is more subdued with grassy hops and an earthy grain backbone.

Pours a darker brown, not really red so much. Smallish head. Strong floral hop aromas. Flavor is dominated by a strong hop bite, with smooth malt underneath. Bitter finish. Full, resinous mouthfeel. This is really good.

35,5 cl bottle (6,3%) @ Olutravintola Konttori. Rated on 02.05.2009
Aroma is nice with hops, exotic fruits and hints of grapefruit. Flavour has hops, exotic fruits, pine needles, some grapefruit and caramel. Nice hops but a bit too much on the sweet side.

Bottle. Pours a wonderful reddish/bronze color. Large frothy off white head leaves some nice lacing. Aroma is piney hops and just a touch of sweet malt. Taste is ripe full of hops; bitter and grapefruit-like with a bit of sweet caramel malt in for balance. Medium bodied and not as malty sweet as expected for a red. Me Likey!

12oz bottle. Ruby red, filtered body. Foamy off-white head. Pretty respectable hop aroma, nice depth. Has the amber malt vanilla cherry flavors, but really well balanced by the big hop bill, which almost has a touch of fresh melon action. Nails the style, quality offering all the way.

From a 12 oz bottle shared at home. Pours a clear amber with an off white head. Hoppy aroma. Tastes of spruce needles, floral hops, and notes of caramel. Bitter finish.
