Rapture is our full-bodied, heavenly hoppy red beer. 5 types of malt and 6 types of hops make for a truly elating experience. Uplifting aromas of grapefruit and pine, combine with pithy orange and tropically citrus flavours which are balanced against a deeply rich and malty body. A satisfyingly dry and crisp finish offers your taste buds redemption. Our red ale will take you to heaven and back…

Can at home. Almost clear amber with decent sized beige head. Lots of citrus with lime, grapefruit and orange. Nice caramel, soft roasted malts, a hint of cocoa. Basically what you’d expect but maybe even more fruity and hoppy. There’s some grassyness in the finish too. Under medium sweet and medium bitter. Decent medium bodied without the light chalky feel some red ales can have. Good beer.

Can. Typical amber hoppy nose, pine, citrus, caramel, something funky. Cloudy amber-orange color. Very piny, minerally, and airy. Meh.

330ml can from Beer Ritz. Deep amber colour with a tan foamy head leaving lacing. Fruity hop aroma. Taste is malt, toasted, caramel with fruity orange hop, pine and tangy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft to medium carbonation, dry earthy bitter finish. Quite drinkable.

Can from Tanakaya. Pours a deep ruby red / copper with a finger of head that dissipates instantly. Very faint tropical notes, and lots of toffee. Light bodied with a thin mouthfeel and more toffee candy. Dry finish. Decent.

Can. Nose is fruity, red berry, orange, modern tropical hops. Taste is malt, orange, leading to grapefruit, lime, the body is malty, biscuit, toast, hazelnut. Mouthfeel is full. Reminiscent of black IPA in the use of modern hops alongside a different body. It?s alright but I can?t get excited by amber ales, however kindly I’m asked to try it...

Keg tap at the Cambridge Blue. Reddish amber, clear with a small off-white head. Resin, toffee, forest floor, a touch of banana in the aroma. Bittersweet taste turning quickly to a sharp bitter, with more resinous hop on the finish. Perfect tickly carbonation. A veritable godsend to an amberphile like me.

Can @ cafe Derat, large sample. Hazy amber color, short frothy head. Aroma of caramel and toffee, piney and grapefruity hops. Toffee sweetness, caramel fudge, but also hoppy bitterness. Wonderfully balanced and caramel body is big enough to make it complex and very tasty. Awesome brew.
