Draught @ Beveridge Place Pub, Seattle. Pours a hazy dark amber color with a small off-white head. Fruity malty hoppy aroma with some piney hints. Sweetish warming malty hoppy flavor. Sweetish malty hoppy finish with a bitter aftertaste.

Perhaps this was a different beer--was listed as an Imperial Red (with no mention of Fresh Hop). Red-orange amber with virutally no head. Little, if any aroma. Candi sugar, residual sweetness in the flavor, with imperceptible hopping.

Bier brauen (246) - Bremerton, Washington, USA - JAN 11, 2008
On tap. One inch head. God hop aroma. Listed as an imperial red, it tasted more like a nice, hoppy ipa. Overall, it was a good beer worth having again

AmEricanbrew (6451) - Same Trailer, Different Park, Louisiana, USA - DEC 8, 2007
Dark amber color with a frothy head. Fresh hop bud nose is fruity, sprucey. Smooth mouthfeel. Great, well balanced taste of caramel and bready malts meshed with a strong but not over powering hop taste to finish. Very easy drinking, i enjoyed this brew and had more than one. Draft at Uber 12/06/2007.

riversideAK (5749) - Shoreline, Washington, USA - DEC 3, 2007
On tap at Brouwers. Copper color with a thin head. Aroma has some buttery notes w musty hop aroma. The strong fresh hop aroma is reminiscent of cat pee or something like this, but in a good way. Up front hoppiness. Very herbal and funky, like drinking good marijuana! Nice fruity malt as the backbone. Nice balance and pretty damn drinkable. It tastes fresh.
