Lengthwise Triple Hop Red Ale

Brewed by Lengthwise Brewery
Style: Amber Ale
Bakersfield, California USA

Clear amber with white head. The aroma is light, citrus, apricot and caramel. The flavor is caramel, pine and apricot. Light body with a watery texture.

Thanks SS. A mild gusher. Dark mahogany color with a hugh ecru head. Really a nice looking pour with fine lines of lace. I do believe this is the first time appearance has scored higher than aroma for me. Nutty resinous aromas dominate. Something seems amiss. I’ve caught this aroma in a few homebrews before, a stale rye bread with a touch of damp mold. Thankfully the flavors are not a thrown off as the aromas. Mild dry caramel, with a touch of cream. Mild acidic hops counter with some light floral and bitter dry herbs. This gets more bitter the further you travel. Finish is very dry and bitter. I sense that this has a mild infection, but it seems to add a dimension in the flavor. A mild return to caramel malt in the long linger. An interesting brew.

Bottle thanks to Odeed: Red in color with a medium off white head. Aroma, caramel, and mild hopiness. Flavor, light caramel, well balanced, some mild bitterness on the finish. Refreshing, soft carbonation. Pretty solid.

Bottle... TITW Part Deux... Clear copper ale with a small, fizzy, white head. Cotton candy and mild caramel in the nose. Extremely well-balanced flavor. More like a really decent amber ale than a Triple IPA. Medium-bodied and fizzy. Short, crisp, grassy finish. Thanks to IrishBoy for providing the bottle!

Enjoyed a sample of this one at Tasting in the Woods, Part Deux. This beer pours to a bright, deep amber to red color, with a tall, off white head, and a moderate carbonation. The nose on this beer has some good sweet/stewed caramel malt aromas, paired with light citrus/lemon hop aroma. The palate delives more good sweet/caramel malt flavors, with a good undertone of citrus/lemon hop flavor. This beer finishes with more good caramel/sweet malt up front, then ends with a tangy citrus hop bite that slightly lingers. Not my favorite example of the style. All and all a decent example, but I would have liked more hop aromatics, and a bit more vibrant/tangy bittereness in the finish. A good beer that would match really well with pub grub.

22 oz. bottle via trade with IrishBoy - Pours a clear amber color with a good size light tan head. Light lacing. Has a light toasty caramel malt aroma. Has a light caramel malt flavor with a light hop presence in the background. Medium body. A good tasting, easy drinking beer. Thanks Richard.

Poured a really nice red-brown color. Good aroma of hops with a bit of sweetness. Really enjoyed the taste. I loved the triple hoppness of the beer and it left your mouth with a little bit of a sweet taste. I enjoy this red ale a lot.

1 pint 6 oz bottle. Poured a brown/red color with a beige head. Atoma was very malty with hints of honey and hops. The taste lived up to its name-- "triple hop"-- very evident with lots of activity, very nice red ale. I loved the notes of malt and faint honey in it, left the palate nicely... veryyyy enjoyable!
