Twisted Pine Red Mountain Ale

Brewed by Twisted Pine Brewing
Style: Irish Ale
Boulder, Colorado USA

tap at the brewpub - Pours dark amber and has an aroma of malts and fruity esters that also come through in the flavor. In that sense it reminded me of their blonde ale. Add caramel malt, a mild to moderate hops bite, and a medium body. It works well as a session beer.

Somewhat hazy, deep mahogany with a nice tan head. A little bit bready / yeasty aromas. Some nice sweetness and spice, too. Rich amber malt backbone, a little bit dry and bitter, with a toasty tangy finish. Not a whole lot of hops.

Had this beer on 9/6/1999. Color is a deep hazy red with good carbonation and head. Aroma is a deep roasted malt scent. Taste is bold, robust, and malty. Starting off with a rich body the flavors of roasted malt come on right away. It goes down crisp as the finish begins with a strong malt flavor and ending with a nice but firm hop bitterness and a faint hop flavor.

(Bottle) Pours a reddish brown color with a small head. Malty aroma with caramel and some molasses. Taste includes some nut and light hoppiness as well. It was well balanced, but seemed a little unrefined at the end. Sweet finish. Other than that, not a bad brew at all.

Good example of a Scottish Ale. I would say thi is closer to a scottish than an irish anyway. Nice malt flavors and very easy to drink. Not too hoppy and no serious off flavors.

bottle. well, this is technically my second bottle. the first obne made a damn fine marinade. pours a light copper with a thin gray head. smells of a sweaty fold out couch. sorry. that’s the best i can do guys. that weird styrofoam and upholstery scent is all over this, plus the unaired sheet aroma that is only found in linen closets of folks like me. woith the liqour on the top shelf, then towels and pillow cases and then washrags, and assorted plastiuc bins that work as a large junk drawer. Memories...............AAAAHHHHHH........ taste is metallic guava and mango with a sharp sour note, not themost enjoyable flavor by far. brush your teeth then eat a cherry, then suck on a penny, then drink a bud, there ya go.

on tap-pours a light tan head and hazy copper color. Aroma is medium malt-caramel. Taste is sweet medium malt-caramel, secondary hops with some bite. Good carbonation.

Nice aroma, like those little caramel candies, and a light bit of melted toffee. Flavor is sweet and malty, nicely balanced, smooth and super easy to drink. A perfect session beer.
