Beers similar to Red Chair

Deschutes Brewery

Pale Ale·United States·6.2% ABV·One of 737 Pale Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Red Chair's bitter and citrusy character. Red Chair takes its name from a chairlift on Mount Bachelor, the ski mountain west of Bend, and returns every winter as a seasonal. The amber pale ale rests on seven malts, among them two crystal malts, Munich and wheat, which bring caramel, toffee and a light bready sweetness. Nugget, Cascade, Centennial and Mosaic add grapefruit, orange peel, pine and a hint of rose. The body is medium, and a firm, dry bitterness keeps the finish clean.
