COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The big brother of our Tyranny Red Ale, this heavily dry-hopped ale is a delicious creation. Tyrant is full of malt rich flavors backed up with deep pine, herb and grapefruit peel aromas, all around a hop heads dream. This is a big bad beer that drinks a little too easy for the 8.8% abv. Pair with fish n’ chips and attitude

On tap at wine 101. Not usually a red ale fan but this one is good. More hoppy than expected which is great! You will not be disappointed with this beer.

On tap at Ridgewood (Raleigh) It is red. Fruity aroma. Slight bitterness that strengthens in the aftertaste. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

drowland (7106) - Georgia, USA - DEC 17, 2013
11/26/13. On tap at the brewpub. Nice red pour with a good khaki head that sticks and laces fine. Dank hop aroma, plenty of hops, with some pine, resin, citrus, and a bit of caramel and doughiness. Tasty flavor as well, good bitterness, quite hoppy, dank, citrus, earthy, with enough caramel and lightly roasted/chocolate malt balance to almost balance it out. I’m okay with it leaning towards hoppy. Tasty.

This beer taught me a lesson about proper serving temperature. deadCATAtlanta brought it over. It was still a bit cold, but we were eager to give it a try and drank it cold. I was read to write this off as a hop bomb, but as it warmed, the malt back developed nicely to provide balance. A very enjoyable beer. Growler - Shared by deadCATAtlanta
