Aroma – Great Hops and Malt aroma with the hops giving you the deep floral aroma.
Appearance – Reddish Amber in color, clear with a light head.
Flavor – A very tasty strong hopped ale with a good malt usage. Big flavors.
Palate – Crisp Mouthfeel, nice texture with a dry finish.
Overall – Sounds like this beer started off as a mistake and has now become a new beer they are looking to brew more of. This was a excellent Red ale with a hop flavor to give.

They said that it was actually a mistake; that more and different hops were accidentally used creating a hoppier and different tasting Chopper’s Red that could not be sold to accounts. Poured a dark reddish brown with a thin beige head. Aromas of funky herbal and piney hops. Smelt funky if you know what I mean. A little toffee/bready malts are there with a strong hop presence that consisted of pine, cat box, herb, and funk. I liked the weed like hops that came through and lingered on the palate with a good dry resiny coating. Good stuff.
