Description
Redpoint: Rock climbing terminology. To practice a climb to perfection. Success derived from perseverance.

Redpoint Brewing Company was founded by Doug Pierce and Spencer Jemelka, two American brewers who have been living in Taiwan and Asia for over a combined 20 years. We felt the Taiwan drinking population deserved a freshly brewed, American style craft beer choice. Our mission is to bring American beer culture to Asia and brew American style, high quality, fresh craft beer.

As Asia starts to embrace and love a greater variety of beer styles, Redpoint will lead this beer revolution as the first American Craft Brewery in Taiwan.

On tap at Redpoint, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out sweet cereal malt and a little alcohol. Flavour is quite sweet, with cereal grains, sweet malt, and bready notes. This doesn't have much depth at all. Like a slightly stronger, more alcoholic, but equally boring version of regular Long Dong.

On tap at Redpoint, pours Black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out toasted malt, with a hint of oats - pretty subtle. Flavour is somewhat bitter, with bitter roasted malt, burnt espresso and a somewhat metallic, astringent finish. Certainly isn't unobtrusive, but it is a bit harsh. Not bad.
