Red Rocket Ale
Wow this is one hoppy red ale. Pours an dark amber brown color with decent head and good lace along the glass. Smell is of roasted nuts and citrusy pacific NW hops. Taste is smack in your face full of bittering hops with a strong lingering aftertaste. Has more of a malty backbone than the hop rod rye but very similar hop characteristics. A nice beer for hop-heads but lacks the purported malty presence and could benefit from being a bit more 'balanced'.
