11 different types of malt. 11 different hop varietals.
When you get to Batch 10,000, where can you go? You go one louder… and again (2019).
Our first batch of this beer debuted in 2012. The label may look a little louder, but the recipe still embraces the same bold citrus and pine hop notes finding balance with a robust, sweet and toasted malt backbone.
Double dry-hopped. Louder.
A wide range of specialty malts anchor the hops in this Imperial Red Ale, contrasting the assertive bitterness & juicy aromatics with a robust, toasty depth of flavor.
Fermented with Bell’s signature house ale yeast, This One Goes to 11 Ale finishes with a lingering warmth.

That’ll be me 20K then @ ChrisO’s. Hazy amber beer, small cream colour head. Palate is airy, semi dry and has decent fine carbonation. Tangy caramel malts. Spicy dried fruit. Caramelly dry finish. Spicy aniseed linger. Nice.

Taste comprises fruit loaf, dates, toffee, spice, light floral notes, orange pith. Medium + bodied, fine carbonation, light boosty close. Decent stronge, kind of a DIPA x-over, well balanced.

Bottle shared at Kenny’s 20k tasting - London. Cheers, Ken! Pours clear amber with a creamy, white head. The nose holds pine, berries and orange peel. Medium sweet flavour with some earthy bitterness, orange rind, grains. Medium to full bodied with average carbonation. Hard piney and earthy bitterness to finish, with more old and rindy citrus fruits. Eh, just so so.

Bottle thanks to Mr 20K Kenny. It pours clear amber with an orange hue and off-white head. The nose is rich, bitter - sweet, dried fruits, fruit cake, dried apricot, stewed orange, candied peel and varnish. The taste is bitter up-front, wood, resinous, varnish, alcohol warmth, toffee, stewed fruits, earth, apricot, peach and bready malts with a warming finish. Medium body, moderate carbonation and oily mouth-feel. A bit hot perhaps, but good fun.

Bottle at Madmitch 20k tasting. Hazy amber. Lasting white head. Hoppy aroma. Like a hoppy barley wine aroma. Rather a good sweet beer. Good hop. Good enough.
