Red Sky At Night
Baltimore
TYPE OF BEER: Saison
ABV: 7.5%
APPEARANCE: The white head laces the glass and with a soda-like thinness lets the hazy burnt amber ale shine thorough.
AROMA: At first blush not unlike Juicy Fruit chewing gum.
MOUTHFEEL: Full bodied, almost chewy with a sparkling carbonation that cleanses the palate and highlight the flavors of the beer.
TASTE: There is a ton of spice going on with this beer, that is both earthy, sweet and hot. The alcohol content comes through with a touch of heat.
OVERALL IMPRESSION: You don’t have to be a sailor to delight in this beer. The brewery suggests pairing with funky cheeses and spicy Asian dishes. I won’t disagree with that.
