11.2? oz bottle from 8/15/15 4 pack poured into an IPA glass.
A - Pours a clear, dark amber/orange with three and half fingers of fluffy head.
S - Dank hops, dark fruit, orange/grapefruit, caramel malts.
T - Follows the nose, with a bit of smoke on the finish.
M - Medium low carbonation, fairly smooth, almost creamy feel, with a tinge of bite on the finish. Seems watery at times.
O - A well made Red IPA. Not quite the top tier of the style, but worth a go.

Poured from a 330 ml bottle into a snifter.
L - Pours a reddish Amber with medium white head.
S- Smell of Malt and pine
T- Maltier than I expected, but in a good way.
F - Nice mouth feel with light carbonation.
O - I really enjoyed this beer. The label says red IPA, but it doesn't seem as bitter as the usual IPA's.

It is self described as a red IPA and there is nothing about this beer that I don't like. It pours a dark amber with a generous head - quite lovely. The taste and mouthfeel just seem to work so well for me. Nice lacing on the drink down. This is a definite repeat for me.

Look; This pours a strong reddish orange with a nice two finger off-white head.
Smell; Very strong tropical fruit hops, slightly dank. Very sweet malt base seems present,
Taste; More of a piney/resinous taste than suggested by the smell, still a good pineapple and grapefruit wallop, followed by a slight sweet malt finish.
Feel; Medium feel, nicely carbonated, a bit of a lingering bitter aftertaste.
Overall; Another excellent beer from the fine folks at Wicked Weed. One of the better Amber/Red Ales I've had.
