This blood-red ale may not be what you expect from a malty and hoppy craft beer. Evil Twin has a rich malt character, without being overly sweet. It has a huge hop character, without being overly bitter. It is a great example of a bold, rich, balanced craft beer, without being heavy and hard to drink in quantity. Our Evil Twin is only bad because it is too good to resist.

Bottle shared at a drinking session with Višnja 666 and Pilot Goran in the summer of 2017. Thanks! Clear amber to ruby red colour, small off-white head. Lightly hoppy, fruity and malty, caramel and roasty. Sweet, with only a light hoppy touch. Medium body, soft carbonation, light finish. Vell made strong ale.

Can from Brewers Haven. Deep mahogany color, one finger fluffy beige head. Aroma us malts, dark, roasty, burnt toast. Taste us dry and dusty, leaves, tobacco, earthy. Malts at its very core. Not too strong for a strong ale, but damn tasty.
