Lucky 13 by Lagunitas

Lucky 13. Imperial Red Ale (which they call "Mondo Large Red Ale"). Lagunitas Brewing Company. Petaluma, CA.

Fall 2010.

My review on RateBeer:

3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
AHTOH (11) - San Diego, California, USA - NOV 28, 2010
22 ounce bottle poured into Duvel tulip. Translucent amber. Beige head with minimal retention duration. Equal amounts of citrusy hops and caramel malts are pronounced on nose. Toffee and grass aromas. Very subtle honey aroma. Slight earthy scent. Grassy hops front of palate. Sweet caramel mid palate. Back of palate is quite nicely balanced hop bitterness and malt sweetness. Hoppy finish. Pleasant and mild mouth feel. Essentially zero syrupiness.
