Another lifestyle-designed beer, this one more for the beer lovers seeking adventure and exploration, Redpoint Ale’s label features the El Dorado canyon just south of Boulder. The formation is called "Potato Chip" and the route the climber is on is called "French Fry". Redpoint Ale is an American Amber/Red Ale brewed with a combination of two row pale and caramel malts. Adam adds a healthy dose of cascade hops at the beginning, middle and end of the 60 minute boil. A proprietary English yeast strain is used.
Immediately note an intense caramelly malt character and a slight roastedness evident in this very clean nose. Note good head retention in this very red, clear, medium-bodied beer. Redpoint starts very malty, but quickly shows its complex flavor profile as the very nicely balance of cascade hops kicks in. Overall, a truly excellent example of an American Amber/Red Ale.
