Buy the ticket, take the ride.
5AM Red Ale is 5 malts, 5 hops and 5% abv. But that’s where the order ends.
Jump in and you’ll find berry bouncing off marmalade clashing with caramel cosying up to chocolate buzzing off spice sizzling with toast laced with lychee and colliding with biscuit.
As malty as it is hoppy. As anarchic as it is structured. Bitterness and sweetness, all neatly messed up in a triumph of pure chaos.
Perfect, baffling symmetry. Go fathom 5AM.
Malts: Maris Otter, Caramalt, Munich Malt, Crystal and Dark Crystal Malts
Hops: Nelson Sauvin, Amarillo
Dry Hops: Simcoe, Cascade, Centennial, Ahtanum, Nelson Sauvin

Bottled. Reddish brown pour. Nice little aroma of earthy hops and malts and and some citrus. SImilar taste. Not a bad red ale, nothing amazing though.

Pours a dark amber with a small off-white head. Aroma of fruits, grains, orange peel, caramel, a number of hops. Dry medium bitter finish. This is quite a tasty thirst-quencher.

Аромат весьма слабый, фруктовый. Цвет темно янтарный, имеется пена которая долго держится. Вкус в основе своей ягодный. Чувствуется черная смородина и немного фруктов. Имеется легка фруктовая постоянная горечь. Пиво слегка водянистое и весьма питкое. Интересный вариант для любителей Ипы.

Can from Home Bargains of all places. Light hazed reddish brown with small off white head. Aroma of homemade marmalade, grapefruit rind, caramel. Taste of Seville oranges with light marmalade hint, pine, caramel, bread crust, mineral water. Leads to a sweet, slight tanginess and bold bitter finish. Light to medium bodied, fine carbonation, very sessionable for the style Its not huge in depth with regards to malt or hop profile but there is a lovely balance and good progression in flavour from start to finish to make this a very good and tasty beer.

Orange copper pour. Even lace. Thick foam around the rim. The flavor is citrus and vanilla with a palate of citrus and hay.
