Bottle. Reddish brown color. Malt, raisin, flowery hops in the aroma. Malty sweet raisinny flavor with a hint of tartness, red berries, oily hops and grapefruit. This beer has a somewhat vinous chharacter with some tannines. Earthy aftertaste

(Bottle) Amber colour, slightly hazy, with frothy beige head. Malty, hoppy, spicy nose with treacle toffee, dried fruit (pineapple, tropical fruit), orange peel, honey, caramel and some roasted almonds. Malty, hoppy taste with notes of treacle toffee, crisp-bread, orange peel, apricot marmalade, dried fruit, maple syrup, a touch of rye and a generous citric, spicy bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Lots of flavours, still in very good balance. Very nice.

Bottle bought @ Systembolaget. pours tiny hazy amber with a small offwhite head that slowly dissipates small sticky trace on the glass. Smell is malty, woody and tiny fruity with sweet dark bread, caramel, toffee, grapefruit juice, dried apricots, moist grass, pine needles, resinous wood, orange peal, lemon zest and hints of alcohol. Taste is slightly sweet, bitter, malty, slightly fruity, slightly grassy and slightly woody. Mouthfeel is soft, viscous, oily, astringent, tiny boozy and medium to full bodied. Finish is sweet, oily bitter and cardboardy. Past its prime I’m afraid... --- Beer merged from original tick of Lagunitas Imperial Red Ale on 04 Feb 2016 at 18:20 - Score: 6.
