Oct 11, 2003 Reddish brown color, long-lasting foam. The flavor is highly-hopped, but also has a great malt balance.

Dec 25, 2007 12 oz bottle (labeled as The Stanley Hotel Redrum Ale). Pours a brownish copper with a thin creamy off white head that quickly recedes to a thin film.
The aroma is sweet caramel malts and fruity hops.
The flavor is sweet and sugary caramel malts with some toasted biscuit and nuts. The finish has some good "C" hop flavoring but is lightly bitter. The mouthfeel is medium and kind of watery.
Overall, a pretty nice hoppy amber. I think this one is pretty underrated.

Jul 15, 2004 Caramel sweet malts - lighter bodied, but in some way chewy. Finish is nicely hopped and dry, with some lingering fruit essence

Oct 22, 2007 12 oz bottle. This was actually a repackaged bottle sold near the Hotel where the Shining was filmed. It was called The Stanly Hotel Redrum Ale. Anyhow, nice red amber with good carbonation and a light head. Lightly pleasant sweet malt with a light citrus hop presence. To me this actually smelled more like a "amber/red ale" than a bitter. Very light in the flavor category but nothing was off. Light caramel with come grain. Hints of musty yeast and muddled hops (cola?). Medium mouth feel. This was relatively easy drinking just like most things from the Estes Park Brewing company, but nothing that made it stand out.

Oct 3, 2009 draft at the brewpub - Pours amber with a caramel malt aroma. It tastes of that sweet caramel malt along a good hops bite leading into a mildly bitter finish. Pretty good, definitely better than the first three brews in my sampler.

Mar 26, 2008 Amber in color. Extremely thin head that fades quickly. Very sweet, malty aroma. Sweet malt taste in the front......smooth mouthfeel. Balanced bitterness in the back, with a slightly dry aftertaste.

Jan 29, 2009 A little malt in the aroma. This is a decent red. A bit malty, a hint of hops and sweetness. Decent but nothing great.
