+++1/2
FROM THE LABEL: " Red Rocket Ale is a basterdized Scottish style red ale packed with distinctive flavors and an aggressive hop character rivaled by none. This unfiltered, bottle- conditioned amber colored ale, breaks all style molds. Brew Master notes: Keep refrigerated, beer is perishable, real ale is alive, yeast is good, serve at 45 -50 degrees. Sonoma County Ales"
FROM THE MOUTH: ALE:I have already had most of the beer and am feeling a whole lot better now then when I was staring at the label reading the most fantastic story of a beer "breaking all style molds." I have decided all these are written late at night after more than a few tastings and they have watched the movie 300 and feel like Spartan warriors. On to the beer which tastes remarkable delicious as I take the last sip. It has a heavy brown sugar smell and it is quite malty but oh the sting of hops comes forward and will not be denied. Oh no, I am feeling like a Spartan Warrior and feel like breaking something...but it is not stylish so I will concede and go listen to Bach and calm down. A+
