Hoppy Holiday Ale
Hi Thirsty, I’m Dad.
This Hoppy Red Ale sports a robust malt bill as ample and snug as a well worn flannel. Throwing on a pair of oversized sneakers that break all known fashion laws, Dad mows acres of dank, piney hops, uphill both ways in the snow. Keep it up—I’ll turn this can around.

Can from Discount. Pours a clear mahogany with a finger of head. Honey malt nose with a touch of grass and faint caramel malt. Rooibos tea-like texture on the palate with some grass, light resin and a touch of woody bitterness. Light bodied with a clean finish, that leaves a tea like coating on the palate.

Malty sweet with light spicy rye. Nice candied fruit notes. Soft ready malts. Medium, rounded mouthfeel. Decent ale. Could use a little more imagination.

Sample at Land Grant. The beer is a clear amber-copper color with a medium off-white head that dissipates steadily. Short strings of lacing. Aroma of malt, hops and spice. Medium body with flavors of caramel malt, herbal hops and subtle sweet spice. The finish is sweet with a short malty aftertaste. Decent overall.
