Commercial Description:
Nimbus Red Ale is a rich, medium-bodied American-style amber ale. Known for its sophisticated mouth feel and exceptional drinkability, our Red Ale is a true classic. Copper-hued and well-balanced, Nimbus Red Ale has a lightly sweet taste enhanced with the flavor of four different malt varieties and flaked barley. We brew this beer with handpicked Chinook and Cascade hops. This combination gives our Red a mild malt sweetness and a relatively dry, aromatic finish. Never bitter, Nimbus Red is sure to please the beer lover who enjoys lighter flavors and a lower alcohol content. It's crisp, refreshing taste has made our Red a fixture at major sporting events throughout Southern Arizona.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt, caramel and lots of citrus and peach notes from the hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, peaches, and oranges, leading to a bitter finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of FlacoAlto. Slightly hazy amber golden with an off-white head. Some aroma hops in the nose together with overripe fruit and a light acidity. Light in body with notes of caramel and fruit and a distinct bitter finish, which comes a little surprising. 130608
