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

26 June 2018. Sample at 't Taphuys, Tilburg. Shared with Anke.
Hazy amber with a small, frothy, off-white head; little lacing. Complex aroma of raisin, almond, caramel, cranberry, hay, herbs, grapefruit, sandwich, plum loaf. It tastes medium malty sweet, notes of caramel & raisin, and light herbal bitter, some hay & nuts. Dryish, herbal hoppy finish, bit grassy, grapefruity & nutty. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation. Complex, yet accessible.

Lane @Brewdog Shoreditch. Bursztynowo-rubinowe, piana drobnopecherzykowa, średnio trwała. W aromacie zywica, troche cytrusow, pod spodem karmel i troche biszkoptu. W smaku nie do konca slodkie, goryczka srednia, wysycenie w sam raz. Proste, ale idealnie sesyjne.
