This delicious brew was made to showcase the range of what hops have to offer: fruity, dank, resinous joy. Made with 100% Idaho grown hops from Jackson Hop Farms- just a short jaunt from our brewery- along with a hefty portion of Crystal malts to increase the sticky malt and a teeny portion of Chocolate malt for color, this red IPA still manages to be supremely drinkable. It’s deep red color and chewy malt body play a supporting role to the huge nose of candied orange, pine, grapefruit, lemongrass and pineapple and the resinous, sticky hop bite. Beware the big, sticky hop monster!

12 oz. can, pours a deep dark amber with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out lots of earthy and resinous hops, toasted biscuity malt, and a hint of caramel. Flavour is fairly potent, with heaps of resinous hops, earthy notes and toasted caramel. Quite assertive, with a punchy bitterness on the finish. Very good.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a clear copper with small beige head that lasts. The aroma is dank, pine, resin. Slick body, oily, dank, grapefruit, lingering resin finish, very good.

12 oz can poured, courtesy of Justin. Thanks! A thick copper red pour with a ton of foam head. A spicy malt aroma. Almost a rye impression. Thought this was a rye beer until I read the can and was proven wrong. Crazy. Flavor is a spicy malt, biscuit, rye?, and caramel. Piney hop bitter remainder. A tasty malt bill here, and it’s definitely the dominant factor here. Interesting IPA here.

Can share at RBBWG 2017, thanks for sharing. Cuivre léger, col beige moyen. Arôme au nez malté caramel, petite note biscuité - crystal avec un rétro aux effluves de houblon tirant légèrement sur le fermenté. Le côté malté l’emporte un peu. Palais est malté en dominance, un léger côté grains perdure sur la fin tirant sur pils, pâle et léger choco. Amertume est bien sans être trop représentative des houblons utilisés qui restent un peu trop en retrait sur des connotations d’agrumes.

Only small head left, hazy coppery amber beer. Resin, New World hops, unidimensional nose, and oxydized too. Sweet-bitterish, hopiness is fruity and resiny. Medium bodied, very slick. Idiomatic, resiny IPA.

Thank you BuckeyeBoy! 355 ml. can sampled @ RBBWG VI (2017). Dark amber, creamy tanned head. Nose beats the tasste, pine resin, herbal with nice dark bread malt base. Taste is bit too empty, basic herbal & pine bitter, empty with low dark bread,... Decent but could have been richer.
