PH 15 Red Apač

Tap to rate

An opal-red American-style ale of 15° original gravity with a sweet, fruity, floral aroma. The taste recalls cherries in chocolate and caramel, bitterness is medium, and a full body carries caramel-sweet tones from a higher share of coloured malts (caramel, Munich and roasted). Cascade, Mandarina Bavaria and Kazbek hops plus herbal extracts shape the aroma, and it is top-fermented.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a full-bodied sweetness that recalls cherries enveloped in chocolate and caramel. The mid-palate is dominated by malty richness from the higher proportion of coloured malts, while a medium bitterness provides balance without dominating. The finish carries through with smooth caramel tones and herbal notes, leaving a satisfying malt-forward character.
