Red Spur is the girl you take home to your parents. Pouring a beautiful ruby hue, this full bodied ale strikes a balance between lots of hop and caramel malt flavor. Hopped with Centennial and Columbus, this ale is full of flavor and complexity.

Pours reddish brown with a large fluffy head that leaves lacing. Nose is herbal and pine with some citrus. Flavor is bitter up front, with some raw hop flavors that are more astringent than tasty. Overall, it isn't a bad beer, but the harshness on the palate makes it one I wouldn't try again.

Pours a deep red with a thick head that hangs around for a long time. Nose is pine, grass with some floral notes. Taste is malt forward with some pine. Mouthfeel is medium. A well done red.

My favorite beer from Lonerider. The perfect balance of hops and malt, with a deep ruby pour.
