Our newest offering Fracas Imperial Red is a deep crimson, bordering on brick red. The nose is big grapefruit, with subtle hints of pine, watermelon and honeydew. The hops are just bitter enough to stand up to the sweet malt and caramelized sugar flavor of the malts. The roast barley gives it depth of color without being overly astrigent or burnt/acrid. The hops in the finish are ever present and the flavor mimics the nose of the beer. Fracas has a slighlty chewy mouthfeel and finishes with a nice caramel sweetness yet without flabbiness in the body.

    Pours a translucent ruby-mahogany with a thick and frothy buff head. Malty aroma has a firm woody hop component and a hint of caramel. Flavor has notes of hay, malt, and caramel, with a snip of evergreen and just a touch of bitterness. Mouthfeel is the weakest point, being average in all departments; still, this is a pleasing and drinkable beer. Raise a fracas!
