COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Apples and pears meet an intense hop bitterness in this India Red Ale. Calypso hops drive the apple and pear aromas, while the carared and melanodin malts balance the bitterness and lend a deep red color. Not for the faint of heart!

Slightly darker than your average IPA. Apple is there, as is more than ample bitterness. Slightly sweet and dry but the IBUs overpower juuuust a little, which is the beers only fault. Good stuff overall."

On draught at deschutes Pdx - pours reddish dark copper with medium thick head. Nose is of sour milk, strong cheese. Taste is much more pleasant combination of apple, pear, and sharp cheddar cheese. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

On draught at Deschutes Brewery & Public House, Portland. Copper red color. Aroma is pear and apple cider, segueing into pine and caramel malts. Taste starts with a caramel apple note, turning into intense citrus and pine resin hops, with a sweet caramel backbone. Incredibly hoppy (says it is 101 IBUs), but the sweet and extremely bitter coexist well.

On tap at the Portland brewpub. Rude piney hops, with apples and pears, Glowing reddish amber color. Great balance from the get go -- even with such a massive hop infusion / mid palate is very hoppy and fruity, and the components are clearly distinguishable on the tongue / final has some rough tobacco and tree bark notes. Thick, heavy body. Not sure if this is really an amber or an Am. strong ale or a weirded up IPA. Rich, rough, and very tasty.
