Grizzly Paw Rutting Elk Red 355 ml - 24 Cans

This Red Ale is designed to be a "mountain classic," offering a richer, more malt-forward experience than a standard lager while remaining exceptionally balanced and accessible for all-day enjoyment.

Beer Description

This Amber/Red Ale pours a beautiful, clear mahogany to deep copper color with a dense, creamy off-white head.

Aroma: It features an inviting and warm bouquet of toasted malts, with distinct notes of caramel, toffee, and a light nuttiness, complemented by a subtle earthy hop presence.

Palate: The flavor profile is dominated by a rich, biscuit-like malt sweetness. Notes of burnt sugar and caramel are balanced by a gentle, spicy hop bitterness that provides a clean and structured finish. It offers a medium body with a smooth, velvety mouthfeel.

Profile: It has an ABV of 5.0% and a moderate bitterness of 20 IBU, making it a flavorful yet highly sessionable choice for those who prefer malt complexity over hop intensity.

Technical Notes: Brewed with a specialized blend of roasted and crystal malts to achieve its signature color and sweet-toasted flavor profile. It utilizes traditional bittering hops to ensure the malt remains the star of the show while maintaining a crisp, balanced edge.
