(Bottle) Pours dark amber to reddish brown with a medium, creamy off-white head. The aroma is medium hoppy and sweet with the typical Lagunita-ish tones of tea, light spices and flowers alongside some notes of citrus/mild grapefruit and mild pine. The malt brings toast, caramel, white bread and a faint hint of roasted grain. Undertones of alcohol, suede and red berries. The flavour is medium hoppy and medium malty with tones of citrus - oranges, and grapefruit, dry resin, flowers, pine, caramel, light chocolate roast, light earth and black tea. The mouthfeel is soft, light smooth and velvety with a light carbonation and a notable numbing alcohol touch. Light to medium sweet and medium bitter with a medium dry finish. Medium to full body. If you inject steroids in to a boring style (like red ale) and try to make it cool, you often end up with a paranoid mess, this one is quite ok, but still noting more than a über malty and pretty boring IPA.

Aug 24, 2008 Bottle from Beerbiker!
Deep red in color with a dense light brown head. Loads of sweet grainy malt aromas along with soaked bread and as in every other Lagunital i’ve had, lots of flowery hops. Sweet caramel and nutty flavor again with plenty of bitterhops. Great!
