COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This is a rich full-bodied American amber ale with a delicate fruity flavor. The sweetness is carefully balanced with Cascade, Willamette and Tettnanger hops from the Yakima Valley. The beer derives its color and caramel flavor from Crystal and Carastan malts. It’s a delicious beer for the real beer drinker. Runaway Red Ale is available in bottles and draft and is best served at 45°F-50°F.

maxwelldeux (4182) - Snohomish, Washington, USA - JUN 15, 2014
Draught at Washington Brewer’s Festival, 2014. Pours a hazy reddish amber color. Nose has some slight caramel elements to it. Taste is a bit bready, and seems fairly average for what it is. Meh.

improvjock (325) - Seattle, Washington, USA - JUL 23, 2013
Bottle. Pours an amber red with light off-white head. Sweet buttery caramel malts in the aroma, with a bit of fruit. Flavor is mostly malty, with a bit of hop bitterness in the finish. Decent, but not special.

12. Pours a murky dark amber with a dense, creamy tan head. Sweet caramel nose, gets a little tangy. Creamy medium body, mild carb. So much residual sugar knocking around, just caramel tang everywhere you look, no room for any contrast. Slick on the tongue. Sweetish finish.

Bottle. Brought back from Washington for me by my friend Rachel. Thanks Rachel! Pours a mildly hazy copper-red colour. Thin white head is surprisingly persistent, considering how little there was to start with. Like the Harvest Pale, this also laces amazingly well. Sharp-looking beer. Nose is big sweet malt, with the spicy hop notes playing a definite second fiddle here. Clean North American Yeast, light red-fruit from the malt, along with that non-distinct caramelly Crystal-malt aroma, hops are present, though indistinct, but not stale. Flavours are hoppier than I was expecting from the nose, I had anticipated an over-sweet, under-hopped Red, but this was not the case, nice spicy noble hop flavours underpin a sweet, but restrained malt character. A worthy thirst-quencher, though I was disappointed by the aroma.

For a Red Ale I was expecting a light hoppiness and a bolder favor of malt to match the beautiful color of a red ale, but for a second time i was let down by Ice Harbor.

beerinmarch (2830) - Washington, USA - DEC 16, 2009
Another heavy hopped for the style brew, lots of citrus piny hops playing of the malts. Balanced and fruity with some cascade hop aromatics. Caramel flavors up front, a bit bready, but enough malt to balance out.
