Siletz RedHead Ale

Brewed by Siletz Brewing and Public House
Style: Irish Ale
Siletz, Oregon USA

Clear dark amber color with a small tan head. Aroma of cherries and malt. Flavor of sour cherries and malt with some hops in the finish.

22oz bottle pours dark amber cloudy with a short offwhite head. Aromas of caramel malts, light ctirus and mostly grassy hops. Flavor is lots of caramel malts, light scotch, and short hops. Palate is med\im bodied and easy to drink Not real great..

Pours a two finger cream head that fades slowly to a thin layer leaving a some lace. Cloudy red/amber color. Light carbonation and medium bodied. Hoppy nose. Starts and finishes sour, hops are there but barely. Not what I was expecting for a red ale. $3.65 for a 22oz bottle from Liquid Solutions Tigard, Or.

13-Apr-06 (22 oz bottle: Obtained in trade with wohlfs 01-Feb-06, thanks Steve!) Yet another sour, nasty, infected bottle of beer from Siletz. I’m keeping track. I’ve purchased 14 bottles of various Siletz beer and 11 have been infected.

05-Oct-05 (22 oz bottle: $3.55 at Liquid Solutions in Tigard OR) Sadly, this is a mildly infected bottle. It tastes fairly sour, like grapefruit juice, but the malts aren’t able to break through. The nose is lightly malty and fruity, but the sourness easily matches those aromas. The body seems pretty light, but the sourness makes it hard to judge. Brick red in color, and quite cloudy, but I can still make out the army of carbonation bubbles rising swiftly through the beer. Tall, light-tan head retains a creamy, quarter-inch layer, and leaves dense patches of foam on the glass. Hopefully I’ll be able to get another bottle of this someday. (4, 4, 3, 2, 5 = 1.8)

This was really disappointing. Pours a really clear amberish ruby color with alot of lively carbonation and a fizzy soda head. Sweet matls dominate the nose, lots of bready yeastiness, with some fruits and and just a bit of a bitter hop bite in the finish. Not much going on here.

22z bottle. Hazy, copper hue with a white swirling head. Bready, yeasty, slight bourbon nose. Amber malts, with sour and tart cherries. Bitter hops, Then sour.

Thanks to HopDog. Pours a hazy burnt orange amber with a small bubbly off white head. aroma is sweet fruit, lots of fruit actually. Flavor is slight bitter hops at th ened with some overall general fruitiness.

Poured a medium to deeper brownish/amber color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of dark fruits, nuts and I swear fresh potting soil. Tastes of dark cherries, caramel and nuts. Lightly sweet with a light to medium watery bitter finish.
