Runoff Red IPA
April 1, 2014Fort Collins, CO
Style: IPA
ABV: 6.5%
This beer glows a ruby red color with minimum carbonation. Head is ivory and disappears quickly. Sticking my nose into this beer, I come away thinking of a sweet ruby red grapefruit. You can tell this beer has a hefty malt bill just by sniffing it. The malt takes center stage with the hops adding just the right amount of citrus, mainly grapefruit. The malt gives this beer a nice medium body with hints of caramel and rye flavors but not overly sweet as one might suspect. I would gladly drink one of these in the warming days as the snow melts away and spring arrives.
