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

Strong it is from a madmex tap, wew. Small glass with a big price. Dark brown. Smooth creamy looking head. Yeasty vanilla taste. Strong sweeter spiced flavors in this one. No co2. Yes, somewhat cloying sweeter spiced thing. Not sure what to say except itsw a high alky beer, not impressed by its forward character. Medicine.

Flaska från SB. Kopparfärgad vätska med tjockt gulaktigt skum. Massiva toner av citrusfrukter med karamell och rostat malt, lite kaffe och antydan av tobak. Kort sagt en doftkaskad. Len och fin inledning som övergår till en explosiv munutfyllnad från alkoholen. Krämig, sött karamellig nästan juicig. Sedan kommer en skön beska mullrande. Det amerikanska humledrivet bara går och går och går och....Ja ni förstår - lång eftersmak.
