Malty, brown sugar and caramel nose. Sweet and mincemeat taste followed by bitter. It’s ok but not great

On tap at Lunar Brewing Co., and snifter served displaying a clear, deep mahogany color, with a finger’s width of tan, head froth that remained for awhile, and clingy, surf spray appearance to the lacing. The aroma offered a pronounced & fruity, dark cherry scent, with sweetness that was lightly smoothed & tempered by some biscuity malt. The taste began with a hint of honey-like sweetness, then continued with moderate, earthy hop bitterness, as both lingered nicely into the finish. Medium+ bodied, with decent carbonation, some alcohol warmth gradually appeared after warming, and a bit of tartness also added to the finish. Nice heft, and good, clean character, I liked it!

Sorry this one is not working. Coming off way too sweet. More like a barley wine than a red.

ben4321 (4897) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - AUG 26, 2014
Location: Draft at Monk’s Pub, 7/8/14

Aroma: The nose is caramel and grainy malts, some decent hop notes
Appearance: Pours a dark reddish color with a beige head and some decent lace
Flavor: The flavor is solid and balanced, good malt presence, solid hop bitterness as well
Palate: The body is medium, a bit sticky, with a decent, but not amazing mouthfeel
Overall Impression: I thought this was a solid one, but it didn’t stand out for me. It’s a tough style to crack into. Needs a better effort than this to get a high score.

Super hoppy red ale and super strong. Smells malty and pours deep red in color. Had this one at temperance ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Elongated goblet draft (14oz) at Small Bar Logan Square ($5). Dark red color, cannot see through it but glows against the candle light. I should say that Imperial Reds are usually not my thang. I dislike caramel and assertive bitterness/resin. This beer was not that. Aroma is moderate hop bitterness slightly overtaking a great Juicy Fruit hoppiness. The hops are sweet, back by some residual sugars, and some tropical fruit to make what basically tastes like Juicy Fruit gum. Flavor is even better with nothing but that Juicy Fruit, which makes me so happy. Bitterness is actually lower in the flavor and just a bit of caramel maltiness at the end of the flavor. A moderate bitterness in the aftertaste.

Draft. Hoppy imp reds and session ipas are the new trend, this is just so dull for what Im looking for in the beer, theres hops and theres malt but its jsut too neat.

[Tap] Draught at the taproom. Reddish amber in color. No head to speak of. Sweet grains, moderate hoppiness and mild alcohol in the aroma. The taste is similar. Sweet caramel malts and a decent hoppy kick. Alcohol is noticeable thoroughout. OK mouthfeel. Prickly carbonation. A pretty pedestrian hoppy red ale. Not a ton of depth here.
