On tap at Ice Harbor pub, beautiful downtown Kennewick WA, $4.50 for the pint. Note this beer is listed as an IPA on the 'other' website, which IMO is incorrect.

One finger off-white, faint tan head, small bubbles, medium-slow dissipation, decent lacing over dark amber body with red highlights, no visible carbonation. Nose is a bit spicy, good citrus hop aromas buttressed by crystal and caramel malt. Taste mirrors nose, fairly malty up front, good fruitiness in the middle, mild bitterness on back end. Mouthfeel is medium, decent effervescence. Upon reflection, I think the ABV listed on the 'other' website is incorrect, tasted more like a beer in the 8% range.

Serving type: on-tap

22oz bomber purchased at Mid Columbia Wines & Spirits in Kennewick, Washington, for $3.25. No freshness date.

Poured a dark amber color, with a modest, off-white head. Fair amount of lacing on the sides of my glass.

Initially, the nose is of a big, malty character. As it warms up, there’s a little bit of floral hop scent, but it stays a mainly malty brew.

The taste is, again, mostly of malts. The floral hops kick in to provide a balance to keep things from getting cloying, but nothing more.

Medium bodied, with a coating mouthfeel.

A decent beer, no world beater. I’d drink it again if I saw it on-tap somewhere, but I don’t think I’d go to any trouble seeking it out.

I bought a bomber of Double Red at the Clover Island Brewpub. Poured into a pint glass

Pours a deep bronze color, clear with a modest off-white head.

Smell is a candy like aroma, molasses and caramel scents.

Taste is as candy as the aroma. Sweet caramel malt and molasses flavors.

Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied, not particularly cloying with a bitter-sweet aftertaste.

Overall a very tasty and enjoyable beer.
