This is a classic West Coast-style imperial red ale brewed with medium crystal malts, centennial and cascade hops.
The color is a burnt amber with red highlights and the aroma has a spicy hop presence with moderate caramel malt accents.
The taste is a smooth, malty one with a balanced hoppy finish that includes hints of sweet caramel

Bottle, 22oz, as Shark Attack Double Red Ale. Thx to tarjei..It pours a slightly unclear, orange-brown body with a small, beige head. Sweet, malty nose with a good dash of citrusy, piney and resiny hops. The flavor is much the same, with a sharp resiny and citrusy hoppyness supported by a malty-sweet, beef-stock like background. Full-bodied. Lasting finish with resins and bitterness. A lovely beer, but maybe a bit too much. (090508)

Bottled (As Port Brewing Shark Attack Double Red Ale)@Konttori, Tampere. Deep ruby colour with mediumsized beige head. Aroma is fruity hops, some alcohol, mild syrupy notes as well as some spices. Flavour is sweet malts along with fruity hops, alcohol and some wooden notes. Aftertaste gets some alcohol, fruity hops and also a bit spruce needle-like notes.

Bottle. Reddish brown color. Grapes and grapefruit in the aroma. Full bodied. malty hopbitter flavor with grapes, red berries and some hop oil. Not too loud but persistant, almost medecinal hopbitter aftertaste. A taste bomb with a decent balance.

(Bottle, Akkurat, Stockholm, 3 April 2009) Reddish amber colour with foamy, beige head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of citrus, blood oranges and lots of citrussy, slightly rubbery, hops. Fruity, malty taste with caramel, blood oranges and generous doses of citrussy, piney hops in the finish. More than medium body. Good balance between the generous amounts of hops and a solid crystal malt foundation. Lovely beer.

22oz "Double" Red Ale bottle. Brought this one back from Seattle, been stashed in the closet for 6 months. Thick red-brown color. Mellow sweet amber malt aroma. The mouthfeel is full and almost creamy, with a solid hoppy bitter edge. Solid big ABV amber malt collides with a sandy fresh bitterness. I couldn’t ask for a much better American Imperial Amber. Good Stuff.

Beautiful red-amber color, cloudy, with a medium-sized creamy head. The malt and hops combine into a very nice aroma, reminding some vanilla too, fruity, true American character, also buttery, and with light earthy traces. Medium body strength, caramel flavor, some residual sweetness (just the necessary) and strong resiny bitterness; there are hints of bitter orange too. Balanced, very enjoyable, solid.
