It's a pleasure to team up with Vibrant Forest on an under-rated style that both breweries happen to love - an Imperial Red. That's not all we have in common, as we also share a designer! Enjoy punchy Centennial, Amarillo, Mosaic and El Dorado hops playing off against the wholesome sweetness of specially selected grains.

[44cl can at the Beer52 Cyberfest.] A bright copper coloured pour with a loose cream coloured head; toffee aroma; boozy toffee taste, with burnt sugar and raisins; and a satisfying finish. A really pleasant sipping beer.

Can from A Hoppy Place, Windsor. Sweet fruity aroma with hints of rye. Hazy treacle brown. Creamy beige head. Initial light sweetness before a spice edge bitterness comes through from the hops and grains. Boozey. Medium bodied. Slick, verging on creamy. Average carbonation. Long astringent. Packed with grains. But a tad too astringent which drops points.
