Darker doesn't always mean stronger. Red IPA's usually carry a maltiness that you don't find with paler styles. The malt character can range from a light caramel to full on rich toffee and toast.
It has a wonderful fruit, pine and spice balance that develops on the palate.

(Can) Pours clear ruddy brown with tiny tan head. Lovely aroma of pine with citrus notes. Slick medium body with fine carbonation. Good rich taste. There’s a backbone of toffee malt. A hoppy bitterness is also present throughout the palate, gaining prominence at the end with a nice bitter finish. There’s are fruity notes in the start and middle. Very enjoyable.
