Bräuhaus Ten.Fifty. Red IPA

◎ Appearance

A deep amber to copper hue with a warm, translucent glow. The unfiltered character brings a soft haze from suspended yeast, while a creamy white head forms readily and clings to the glass with fine lacing. Natural carbonation presents as a steady stream of fine bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with stone fruit and red berry aromatics—melon and strawberry dominate, lifted by the generous dry-hop addition. Beneath this fruit-forward character lies a solid malt foundation with subtle sweetness, grounded by an earthy, herbaceous undertone from the noble hops used in the kettle.

◐ Taste

Entry brings a full malt body with caramel and toffee notes that establish a sweet, inviting palate. Mid-palate reveals the interplay between malt complexity and kettle-derived bitterness, which builds methodically to counter the residual sweetness. The 55 IBUs frame rather than dominate, allowing the layered malt character to remain central.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium in length with a dry, slightly earthy fade that echoes the dry-hop contribution. A gentle bitterness persists alongside fading malt warmth, leaving a clean, refreshing aftertaste.
