COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
We desecrated traditional malty red ales by adding a sinful amount of Colombus Hops in the fermenter. The dark crystal malts balance out the pungent nose on this beer. The vatican did not approve of this recipe, but we’re reaching for a higher power... YOU!!!

AdamChandler (3785) - Enfield, New Hampshire, USA - JAN 24, 2014
Dark red. Pine cone nose and chalky French baguette. Taste is a chalk bomb. Mouthfeel is chalky and dry. Slightly dank. Pine oils and broken dreams.

brokensail (13782) - Orange County, California, USA - DEC 2, 2013
On tap @ Seabright. Amber pour with a white head. Caramel, toast, and bread on the nose. A bit of sweet fruit, some grass, and a slight herbal note. Flavor is sweet up front with a nice caramel and bread character. Some toast, herbs, and bitter grassy hops. Mild fruity esters in the background, mostly apple.

Delirium (636) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - JUL 3, 2009
Draught at the brewpub. Pours reddish-brown with a moderate tan head. Lots of sweetish crystal malt, with a bit of roastiness, set against a good deal of citrus and pine hops. Pretty good; sort of like an amped-up amber.

badlizard (5535) - Berkeley, California, USA - APR 3, 2009
On tap at brewery. Dark red with a fizzy tan head. Musty citrus malty aroma and taste with caramel finish.

illidurit (2245) - San Francisco, California, USA - NOV 20, 2008
On tap at the brewpub. Attractive copper color with a light tan head that leaves good lacing. Citrus and pine hop aromas emanate from the glass. Flavor is sweet from all the crystal malt, with ripe citrus hoppiness and an appreciable bitterness. But I don’t care how bitter they make it, it isn’t going to cover up the saccharine quality of crystal malt. Good balance, mouthfeel is a bit thin, pretty easy to drink. Just too sweet for me.

SamGamgee (2452) - down the whirlpool, California, USA - SEP 20, 2008
Draught at the brewpub. Deep red color with a beige head that leaves sheets of lace. Toasty, crystal malts, sweet spruce, and gingery hops in the nose. Malty flavor with plenty of dark crystal malts and ample west coast style hopping. Just a slight tea note from the crystal, but pretty smooth flavor. A flavorful amber with a pretty full body and good hop flavor.

rayOfBeer (673) - El Cerrito, California, USA - JUL 15, 2008
Poured on tap at Marin Brew Breast Fest a red-amber and small off-white head. Aroma is floral citrus hops. Flavor has a nice floral citrus bite with a some pine, malt and a light bitterness. The body is somewhat watery but overall nice flavors and pleasant to drink. I’d try it again.

pinkzambia (1720) - Boise, Idaho, USA - FEB 26, 2008
Tap: Brown color with a light head in color and body. Smoky hopes with an almost overripe scent, resembling a light odor of a landfill. Thebitter hop flavor comes through as well as the alcohol. It has kind of a watery feel. It’s ok, but expecting a little more out of a 2IPA.

goldtwins (4320) - Nesconset, New York, USA - FEB 12, 2008
Tap @ Bistro’s 8th Annual IIPA Fest. Poured a clear amber color with a beige head. Pleasant notes of pine and citrus make up the aroma. Citrus flavor with some malt mixing right in. This was tasty with a nice aroma and great balance. But stood out as small compared many of the big boys at the fest. Light side of medium body with a mild bitterness.
