The Red Hart Brewing Co. Modern Day Warrior – American Brown Ale at 6% ABV (C$11.38 at Collective, 473 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 1-Dec-2025, reviewed 21-Dec-2025)
Appearance: clear brown with one finger of fine beige head, good retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: toasted bread, dark fruit, honey, faint nuts. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium body, moderate-lively carbonation, medium duration slightly edgy finish. (3/5)
Collective Advent #17. Can’t decide whether to penalize the label for blatant Rush ripoff, or award for Rush homage, so we’ll leave it neutral. A fairly pleasant Brown, all about the malt on the front end and unfortunately lacking any real hop presence. It’s fairly clean through the mid, but tends just a touch edgy for the style through the finish. Not one to excite. (14/20)
This will be my 6,305th unique Untappd check-in.
