Red's Dead

◎ Appearance

Deep red-amber body with excellent clarity and a full, persistent head that clings to the glass in fine lacing. The color reflects the careful balance of specialty malts, presenting a warm, inviting hue. Carbonation is crisp and well-integrated, supporting a dense foam that gradually settles to a lasting collar.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant tropical fruit — mango and pineapple dominate, underpinned by bright citrus notes of tangerine and candied orange. A resinous pine character emerges on closer inspection, adding herbal depth and complexity. The hop-forward profile is clean and inviting, with no harsh or oxidized edges.

◐ Taste

Entry is juicy and fruit-forward, with the same tropical and citrus notes from the aroma translating seamlessly to the palate. Mid-palate shifts toward caramel and toasted toffee from the specialty malts, providing sweetness and body that grounds the hops. The finish is marked by a citrus-edged bitterness that balances the malt sweetness without overwhelming it, leaving a dry, slightly resinous aftertaste.

◑ Finish

Medium-length finish with a lingering citrus and pine bitterness that gradually fades to a dry, malty warmth. The aftertaste remains fruity and refreshing, with a subtle resinous note persisting on the palate.
