Slightly spicy red ale with a balanced backbone of hops and lightly caramelised malts. On nose the dry smokiness of cayenne pepper bullies the aromas of gentle Amarillo hops and malted barley aside. But a playful caramel reigns on the tongue, leaving the pepper to just nudging the throat to leave the aftertaste to the fruity bitterness of the hops.

Pours a cloudy, dark, reddish amber coloration with a huge, creamy head. Smells of slightly grainy, caramel malt and citrus, berry notes of cranberry and tangerine, with just a hint of cayenne pepper coming through as well. Taste is a great balance of slightly grainy, caramel malt. just a hint of chocolate, red berries, with notes of cranberry and redcurrant, citrus hops, with notes of orange and tangerine, as well as a light chili heat pleasantly lingering on the tongue. Finishes with a light bitterness and chili heat, as well as some cranberry and tengerine lingering in the aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.

This makes for a really nice American Red Ale, with a great, spicy twist.The grainy, caramel malt and zesty, bitter hops work together great here, while finishing with a great chili presence in the aftertaste, which could still be just a bit more pronounced for my personal taste though. Overall, this makes for a very enjoyable Red Ale with a great balance of sweet malts, bitter hops and spicy cayenne peppers.
