Green Flash Hop Head Red. Red/Amber ale. San Diego, CA. 8.1% ABV.
Served chilled from a 12 oz bottle and poured into a pint glass. Pours a dark amber color with a one and a half finger foam head. Smells are of caramel, citrus and a bready malt. Carbonation is moderate with a medium body. This beer is incredibly crisp and refreshing. Taste is sweet, malty and has some spices. Crisp aftertaste with little lingering flavors.
This beer was amazing. I have always enjoyed Green Flash, but amber ales tend to be hit or miss for me. This was an immediate hit. The beer was very refreshing right from the start, and finished nicely as well. Would absolutely buy this again, and I'll be on the lookout immediately.
