American-style double red ale, full-bodied caramel malt flavor supports a ridiculous amount of hops, giving it pronounced bitterness and overwhelming hop flavor and aroma. Made with the help of a few Polish friends known as the Kowski Quartet.

    Pour a light red color with massive head amazing lacing, i think the rings lasted 10 minutes after i was done. Aroma was very floral and grapefruits. Flavor was the same but malts balanced it out. very very good beer.

    A very fine take on the style, definitely doesn't fall into boring caramel malts with lots of piney and resinous hops, like some of the other imperial reds I've had. Pours a nice peachy reddish color with a huge off-white, slightly peachy foamy head. Lacing was great, rings around the glass all the way down. The aroma was nose capturing, lots and lots of floral notes (lavendar and roses?), somewhat perfumey, grapefruity. Was a bit scared to taste it after that strong girlie smell, but the flavor was solid, following the aroma in a mellow way and mixing in a decent caramel malt backbone and some fruity notes of melons and passion fruit. Mouthfeel was crisp and only moderate for an imperial beer of any style, alcohol WELL under control.
