Nous sommes avant tout en présence d'une IPA avec cette Red is Dead plutôt que sur une Red Ale. Celle-ci est d'ailleurs plaisante et globalement bien équilibrée. Et si elle aurait mérité d'être un peu plus saillant, les arômes d'orange amère et de pamplemousse accompagnés d'herbes, d'épices et de caramel sont très agréables. Le visuel est sur une robe ambrée voilée surmontée d'une fine mousse blanche. Le nez est appréciable sur une principale orange amère/ pamplemousse agrémentée d'herbes et de caramel. En bouche c'est relativement simple, mais tout aussi appréciable. De légères épices apparaissent à l'attaque. L'ensemble manque tout de même quelque peu de tension aromatique, de vivacité, de complexité et de longueur. Sympathique.

Modern american red. Bitter and basically an ipa with some color. But the bitterness and hop aroma is actually nice, just not what i want in the style. Brewberry Paris

Red with a frothy to creamy white head. Tropical aroma full of citrus and mango with strong caramel undertones. Taste is bittersweet up front, increasingly bitter at the end. Medium body with a nice, creamy feel in the mouth. Good.

Thank you! Sampled draft @ Delirium Hoppy Loft. Golden orange. Nose is oily sweet orange peel, basic old school hoppy. Taste is basic hop oil, orange peel, old school with some perfume, caramel malt,… Basic oily perfume body. Solid, enjoyable even if nothing shocking, definitely better than most Sainte Crucienne beers.

Bottle from Terre de Boissons Calais and drunk at home. Hazy russet amber colour lasting cream head. Hoppy strawberry grapefruit sherbet aroma. Some malt in the mouth. Hops are really up my alley though. I like the sweetness. Light bitterness, but the sherbet hop is rather good. Some red fruits. OK herby fruity hop
