Centennial Red (Brewmaster Series)
22 oz. bomber poured into a balloon glass. Good head on the pour with decent lacing that stuck around for a while. Smells of roasted malt and some subtle brown sugar. You can definitely smell the hops too, which is always nice with a red. Taste is malty, but dry and a little chalky. The hops are not in balance and after the first few sips they pretty much fade to the background if not fade away. The chalkiness appears in the mouthfeel too but it's not too much of a distraction. Overall this is a decent beer and it's easy to drink. I love visiting Long Trail and like their Eco Friendly corporate philosophy. I recently had a Lagunitas Lucky 13, and that is by far the superior imperial red, but this one is worth trying once. Cheers!
