Day 21 of the 2018 Advent calendar.
I rather liked this offering. Plenty of malt flavor to go with the red color and the initial tan head.
Deeply bitter, but not unpleasantly so.

330ml bottle - day 21 of the 2018 Craft Beer Advent Calendar. Wow, this was added almost a year ago, and no ratings since. Let me fix that for you.
This beer pours a clear, dark bronzed amber colour, with four chubby fingers of puffy, rocky, and mildly bubbly ecru head, which leaves some approaching fog bank profile lace around the glass as it rather lazily recedes.
It smells of bready and doughy caramel malt, candied orange peel, a further indistinct tropical fruitiness, a bit of oily bar-top nuts, some stoney flintiness, and more earthy, musty, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy caramel malt, some mixed domestic citrus rind, hints of semi-sweet cocoa powder, a damp minerality, and some plain leafy, weedy, and piney hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-pleasing frothiness, the body a decent medium weight, and generally smooth, with nothing really out of order at this particular point in the game. It finishes off-dry, the malt and lingering mixed frooty notes presiding.
Overall - this comes across as a pleasantly rendered version of the style, with just a little bit of extra New World hop kick. Worth checking out, especially if you find yourself anywhere near the northern reaches of 8 degrees west longitude, natch!
