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

Deep amber colour, thin but pretty dense off-white head, some lacing. Smell shows caramel and red fruits/stone fruit among a vivid but not at all aggressive resinous feel. Taste has sweet entrypoint with a caramel malts foundation, then resinous and citric notes in the bitter finish. Some notes of stone fruit can be detected as well. Overall in good balance. Light to medium body, low to average crispness, decently smooth. Interesting aroma profile, but not impressive in terms of mouthfeel and overall feeling.

Kirkas selvästi punaiseen päin kallellaan oleva punertavanruskea olut kohtalaisella, hieman rusehtavalla vaahdolla. Tuoksu jopa kermainen, samalla kertaa pihkaisen havuinen, hieman hedelmäinen sekä karamellinen. Maku on aika erikoinen sekoitus mäntystä havuisuutta ja toisaalta humalan mukanaan tuomaa luumuista hedelmäisyyttä sekä pientä savuisuutta. Karpaloa ja muuta marjaisuutta havaittavissa varsinkin loppupuolella ja jälkimaussa. Hieman ohut suutuntuma. Tuntuu että tähän on yritetty ympätä vähän turhan paljon kaikkea.

Teljesen átlátszatlan, mélyvörös színű. Habja kicsi, és az is gyorsan eltűnik. Illata nagyon hasonlít a Dead Pony-ra, kifejezetten cideres. Rögtön a keserűssége vág mellbe, kortyérzete malátásan, lecsengése pörkölt jelleggel, pici citromos mellékzöngével. Utóíze stout-os, hosszan tartó. Közepesen telt érzetű. Némileg módosított, kicsit erősebbre készített Dead Pony, de az jobban ízlett.

Amber with thick and lasting head. Strong aroma, rose, candy. Sweet, hops develop, smoky in the finish. Very drinkable and refreshing, lasting aftertaste.

Bottle from Drinks of the World Zurich. Lots and lots of grassy hops aroma. Spring-like. A little more malts than a pale ale making this a tad amber, but really not so much different. Sweet, medium body, good carbonation.

330ml bottle. Clear dark amber colour with a small beige head. Aroma is malty, spicy hops, pine, citrus. Taste is malty, caramel, fruity spicy hops, pine. Bittersweet but more on the bitter side, especially in the finish.
