Clipper City Heavy Seas Red Sky At Night

Just the right amount of spice and sweetness for a late nightcap after hard physical work. Good aroma and lasting head, light colour. A fine saison.I hadn’t realized this was out for about 3 years, and picked it up this year.

Pale, slightly cloudy orange..a little white foam and some nice bubbles....smells of yeast, citrus, and some spice...light with a nice bulk to the body...some spice and orange flavor...good, but wouldn’t want it all the time

Pours a cloudy orange. Hints of citrus, sugar and spicy hops in the aroma. Some sour yeasty flavor that finishes with spicy hops bitterness and alcohol warmth.

Bottle courtesy decaturstevo. Pours gold with a thick and lacy white head. Tart lemon spice aroma. Medium body and subdued carbonation. The taste is lemon, sweet bread, and a dash of fruit. Dry spicy finish. Seems to be sort of an imperial saison??

I dont know why i like this beer so much, but i think its a great buy for its price/taste/alcohol.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Degarth. Slightly hazy golden with a white head leaving some lacework. Lightly tart, citrusy nose. Medium body with a subdued malt base and a distinct, citrusy tartness. Dry but not overly bitter finish. Classical American style Saison. 061007

Bottle thanks to santoslhalper. Great tangy sugary orange blossom nose, with sour mash and yeasty funk. Very reminiscent of funkier saisons and even some Belgian tripels. Takes me back to Europe. Fruity and aromatic. Pale golden clear with light haze and small chunky particles, topped with thin white lacing head. Medium bodied with medium to light carbonation. Starts with a yeasty funky tang, orange blossom, yeast and candi sugar. A bit of warming but not powerful. Very nice orange citrus zest to it that keeps it from being too cloying. Finish is fruity with light yeasty character and mild hoppy finish. Not bitter at all. Orange marmalade and tang in the after. Nice little ale.

A very subtle flavoring that goes down smooth and refreshing like a nice Irish red; however, be aware that this beer in fact is 8% and will wallop you if you do not respect it.
