Feb 27, 2009 Mad River Jamaica Red is a very cloudy dark amber ale with a small light beige head that fades but leaves great lacing. It has a strong, sweet, malty aroma with a piny spice. There are notes of candied orange peel and fruit cake in the nose. It is medium-- maybe medium-full bodied. It is soft and smooth with a clean, dry finish. It has a full semi-sweet malty flavor that kind of reminds me of frosted cupcakes. It is well-balanced with a citrus-pine bitterness and it has a resiny flavor. This is kind of like a light barleywine. This is pretty classic. I used to drink a bunch of this back in the day, but I don’t remember it tasting quite like this.

Jan 12, 2009 DEFINITE flavor of pineapple and for that matter mango right out of the bottle. these flavors mostly subside and you end up sipping a sweet malty brew with a nice spicey and grapefruit hoppy character. body a little slick. yet still a nice stingy carbonation. extra touch of caramel tries to keep it balanced . good beer with a bitter rind finish.

Dec 14, 2008 [bottle - 12 oz] Ruby red pour with a creamy tan head. Aroma is rather hoppy with some good citrus notes. Some grapefruit, honey, and grains. Flavor is very spicy and hoppy at the beginning with a lot of citrus in the middle that blends with some caramel malts and ends with a touch spicy and peppery hops. Aftertaste is bitter and spicy and lingers for a bit.
