Bottle. Pours a beautiful chestnut with a thick tan head. Hoppy and sweet nose with notes of red berry and a hint of caramel. Medium mouthfeel and quite hoppy, with notes of berry and pine. Dry, bitter, and slightly metallic finish. Decent for an amber but not one of Rogue’s better beers.

Oct 12, 2008 A bit more bronze than copper, with a short tan head, this ale hit you squarely with a spectrum of malt aromas and flavors that are offset slightly by a hops endnote. A real complex ale worth your time..

Oct 10, 2008 12 ounce bottle courtesy of cdumler. Thanks Chris! Hazy maroon colored pour with a medium head. Sweet malty aroma with some woody hops. Taste is bitter, pine hops with brown sugar and nutty notes. Medium bodied.

Oct 3, 2008 Dry hopped Red Ale. Aroma is rich roasted malt, dried fruits, caramel. Reddish brown color with tan foamy head. Flavors are roasted malt balanced with a rich hopped bitterness. Decent amount of sweetness. Rasins and oatmeal. Slight orangepeel on the duration. Palate is light but solid and not weak. Pretty good overall.

Sep 30, 2008 Pours a red-copper color with thin head. The aroma is malty with some definite hoppiness. Not as much hoppiness in the aroma as I expected. The flavor is good. It is malty with a unique hop flavor. I don’t find this hop flavor in a lot of beers. The dry hopping is apparent. The body is a touch on the light side for me and the carbonation is good. This is a good hoppy beer and is different then a lot of the hoppy beers out there.
