Description:
The Malt Advocate described Saint Rogue Red as "An ale with great character and plenty of hops to satisfy. Full aromatic punch of caramel, citrus fruit and melon, with underlying fresh earth tones. Sweet caramel notes up front are quickly taken over by an array of fruit and hops bitterness that lingers into the night. A more adventurous ale than most."
Reddish copper in color, a roasty malt flavor with a hoppy sprucy finish. Saint Rogue Red is made with two-row Harrington, Klages and Munich malts, along with Hugh Baird 30-37, 13-17 Carastan, and Crystal 70-80 malts (44.4% speciality grains .39 lbs grain per bottle); Chinook and Centennial hops. Saint Rogue Red is available in a 22-ounce bottle, 12-ounce 6-pack (new for 2005), and on draft. Saint Rogue Red Dry Hopped-a draft only variation with raw Centennial hops added to the keg, giving the beer an increased hop finish and intense hop aroma.

Appearance - 4.0
Pours a dark amber color, almost brown and can only partly be seen through. It has one fingers worth of tannish head. The head leaves a good amount of lacing and retains itself well.
Aroma - 4.0
Can make out malt in the front of the aroma followed by some citrus hops.
Mouthfeel - 3.0
A medium bodied beer with a good amount of carbonation.
Taste - 4.0
Has a nice balance in the taste. It begins with the hops and the citrus flavor and ends with a sweet malty flavor, but nothing overpowering. The aftertaste is relatively tame without too much kick.
Overall - 4.0
A unique take on an amber/red ale. It has a nice balance all around and looks/tastes great. I would probably pick this up again.
