Description:

This is a delicious American-style Red ale that keeps the hops and malt characters in balance. There's something special, to me at least, about San Diego Super Yeast (WLP090), which ferments this beer out nice and clean though leaves just the right amount of residual sweetness. The flavor/aroma blend of Willamette and Cascade hops is killer.
