JAMAICA BRAND RED ALE
TWELVE (12) FLUID OUNCES., ALCOHOL 6.5% BY VOLUME
Mad River Brewing Company, INC, Blue Lake, CA

FROM THE LABEL: "Product of USA. Certified with whole Hop goodness from the heart of the redwoods."
COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION;This beer was originally brewed for a famous Reggae festival that happens each year here in Humboldt County. A malty bitter American Amber style ale. This mahogany hued ale brings an intense spectrum of hop flavors from the spicy aromatic to lingering bitter, all underscored by a full- bodied caramel richness. Try this brew with a little Jamaican Jerked Chicken.
FROM THE MOUTH: RED ALE: This would indeed by splendid with some Jamaican Jerked Chicken but since we don't have any of that....let's talk about the beer. First sip is intense with hops but mellows out full steam ahead with some citrus..nice transition because it almost was heading towards the rapids. I sound like a label! Not for the hop timid but it is balanced well with the malt so don't be shy. A
FROM THE STORE: Huckleberry's
Rely on your own strength of
body and soul. Take for your star self-reliance, faith, honesty and industry.
Don't take too much advice — keep at the helm and steer your own ship, and
remember that the great art of commanding is to take a fair share of the work.
Fire above the mark you intend to hit. Energy, invincible determination with the
right motive, are the levers that move the world.Noah Porter
