Lost Craft Brewing Co. Crimzen Premium Red Ale – American Amber / Red Ale at 4.7% ABV | 28 IBU

Lost Craft Brewing Co. Crimzen Premium Red Ale American Amber / Red Ale at 4.7% ABV | 28 IBU (C$3.57 at NLC Stavanger, 473 ml, packaged on 20-Apr-2017, acquired 29-May-2017, reviewed 30-May-2017)

Appearance: clear medium amber with one fat finger of fluffy ivory head diminishing rapidly to a thin cap, patchy lacing. (3/5) Aroma: toasted grain, caramel, grass. (5/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-low bitter. (4/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, off-dry mild bitter and slightly astringent finish. (3/5)

Yeah, I know: it has “Premium” on the label, say no more. Boring at best, with a slightly unbalanced astringency in the finish. Don’t bother. (10/20)

5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
