[33cl can from the Beer52 box for February.] A slightly hazy amber pour with a thin white head; light citrusy aroma; much fuller in the mouth with a sweet and bitter marmalade thing going on; then some caramel and citrus peel in the finish. Pleasant enough, but why call it a Red Ale?

330ml can, well in date when drank at home on 22nd Feb 2019. Not too sure about Beer 52 and where they brew\source their beers, but I have no complaints about this beer at all. Hazy Amber body, white topping. Nose is hop driven, as is the taste, dank, resinous hoppiness rule the brew, even with the semi-sweet malty base trying to give some balance. Buckwheat? No, light citrus undertone maybe.
