Brewed to celebrate 100 years of the oldest hiking trail in North America, the Long Trail. This ale features a slightly sweet malt flavor delicately balanced by the use of centennial hops. This bigger beer goes down smooth, please indulge with moderation.
Our Imperial Red Ale has the traditional characteristics of a red ale with the addition of an ample amount of hops and a higher grain bill that yields more sugars during the brewing process; resulting in a higher ABV.
60 IBU

A: pours a really nice amber red color. bone colored head, some lacing that crawls down the glass
S: pretty earthy nose. rather floral hop presence, with some hints of pine. Clean nose.
T: a nice combo. There is a nice cirtusy hop presence, as well a nice finishing malt balance. they play really nice with each other, and it definitely balances. Nice Centennial flavor up front with a caramel malt end. this was very nice
M: Hearty flavor, solid but not overpowering body. Little but of a syrupy finish, but not in a bad way
D: high

Nice deep red/copper color and light creamy head (nice retention). Smell a bit like strawberry sweetness with a hint of sour milk. Nice level of carbonation. Also, a nice mild bitterness from start to finish.
EDIT: Now that I am enjoying this and its warming up, I am getting some chocolate notes.
