Horadric Red Ale is a Bourbon Barrel Aged Red, worthy of any mortal who's ever hunted a soulstone. Aromas of sweet caramel malt, soft vanilla and mild coconut herald rich caramel flavor with gleaming notes of dark fruit.

look: 3.75 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25
Deep dark amber with tan film that goes to no head. 3.75
Cherry, booze, vanilla. 4
Dark sugars, dried cranberries, whack of vanilla, then a flurry of barleywine notes and mellow wood to end. 4.25
Medium+, chewy, smooth. 4.25

ABV kills the head, and a might hit of whiskey on the nose. Berry notes throughout - drinks like a liqueur. Imperial Red is unusual enough as a style that I wish I knew the base beer (i.e. before BA’ing.) Still, considerable. 4.25

A most excellent beer, nose full of bourbon, palate starts with vanilla and transitions to a more nuanced malt caramel sweetness with only a very slight hint of sour and a lingering alcohol heat. The flavor profile emphasizes the imperial and barrel aged more than the red - definitely for fans of old ales and BA English barleywines.

T: vanilla. Booze. Oak. Bourbon. Sweet caramel. Vanilla extract. Figs. Candied orange peel. Resin.
