Our Sidewinder Red Ale is very unique. Its bold malt flavors & mild hops give it an undertone of pineapple & citrus with slight pine aromas. This is a well balanced ale even with the higher ABV.

Poured a clear Ruby with no head. Little aroma, and a mild sweet caramel flavor with a very thin body. Stated 9.2%, and if so, very unnoticed. Cheers!

Tasted at brewery on 1 Nov 15. Moderate hops bitterness with nice malt flavors. Alcohol is evident but not overpowering. Well done!

I am not historically a fan of Reds, but this one more than works.
