BigLeaf Maple Autumn Red is a quaffable, well-balanced American red ale with character. Its malty complexity and coppery color come from a combination of two caramel malts, pale malt, and a hint of maple syrup. To complement these flavors, we used three additions of Nelson Sauvin hops in the brewkettle and a unique blend of Nelson Sauvin, Citra, and Cascade for dry hopping. A hint of maple — including bigleaf maple — syrup in every brew perfectly complements the malty complexity, balanced hoppiness, and rich fall hue of BigLeaf Maple Autumn Red.

0.355l bottle. A nice near clear kinda light amber colored one this with a small light lacing off-white top. Noticed now that it's been quite a while since I've tasted a beer from Anchor. It smells quite nice this. A bit sweet and almost a little spicy with fruity sweetness, some light yeast tones and a good amount of caramel. Red apples also found here. Smells nice and it's hinting of a slightly sweet flavor. Oh, that's tasty! Not to sweet at all, and it has a really kick almost slightly burned rye flavor all the way. Also the soft melony bitterness balanced the whole thing a lovely way. Malty yeah, but it's definitely well hopped! A bit high on the bubbles, or not to high just above average and they are of the small kind. Feels light oily on the mouth. Piney finish and aftertaste here, and it's not letting go easily. Sessional, something I could easily - and will drink again. 23.11.2013

Ren og nedtonet smak, men med litt for sterk oksydering for en strong ale. Kan fungere, men må smakes om igjen før jeg blir overbevist.

Bouteille 355ml de Geers, BB 25/08/2015. Ambrée-cuivrée, col épais et crémeux blanc cassé. Arôme offre ce malté typique américain, note pâle plus prenante accompagnée de léger caramel. Léger fleuri houblonné rappelant presque un côté automnal feuillu. En rétro, je note un épicé houblonné donnant qcq notes citronnées. Levure également présente. Arôme malté, cara pâle avec un profil érable présent mais discret. On y note tout de même un côté organique donnant un caractère doux sans pour cela tomber dans le sucré-érable. Légère note épicée et houblonné, un peu sec et ponctué par une fine touche de levure. Bière ambrée typique américaine avec ce petit ajout d’érable qui aurait pu être un tout petit peu plus présent.

bottle from saveur-biere. Hazy amber-brown colour, mid-sized off-white head. Caramel and raisins, also dates and figs present, plus some shy hoppy touch. Nothing exceptional, but a decent amber ale.

A beautiful beer, reddish brown colour, a head is dense, big and beige. The nose is sweet, caramell, fruits, some tropical fruits, citrusfruits. Weird taste with sweetness and bitterness. Caramelly malts, citrusfruity bitterness, some piney wood. Medium bodied, high and refreshning carbonation. Interesting and different beer, caramell and bitterness.

slightly cloudy amber colour, huge, long lasting dense beige head; aroma of biscuit, toffee, some apple and dried fruits; taste is less complex: bitterness and some burnt sugar - based on the aroma I expected more
