On tap at Smith & Lentz, pours a murky dark reddish brown with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out oats, toasted malt and a hint of the candy. Flavour is quite dry for a candied stout, with toasted malt, caramel. Not overly complex or deep, but it works okay.

On tap at Smith & Lentz, pours a hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of tropical stone fruits upfront, with a dry biscuity malt base. Flavour is punchy and assertive, with piney hops, crisp biscuity malt and a little fruitiness. Wonderfully balanced, with deep drinkability. Excellent.

Draft at Craft Brewed. Pours a clear reddish chestnut color with a small head. Malt on the nose, bit of gummy bear, grapefruit and caramel. Clean, little grass and bark mid palate. Smooth finish....light bitterness. Nothing amazing, but a solid beer. --- Beer merged from original tick of Red IPA on 01 Dec 2017 at 21:56 - Score: 7.

Draft at Craft Brewed. Pours a clear gold with a finger of foam. Great dank mosaic forward nose. Clean iyokan, bright grapefruit pith. Really nice continuous hit of citrus, pith and weed. Dry on the palate, with lots of bright, pithy citrus notes. Reminds me of some of best from Oni Densetsu. Very nice drop. --- Beer merged from original tick of Wet Hop Mosaic IPA on 23 Oct 2017 at 21:10 - Score: 8. Original review text: Great dank mosaic forward nose.
