I’m away from my email, but I suspect the following (lifted from Heavy Table) is also in my inbox. I’m looking forward to trying Summit’s latest beer, Horizon Red Ale:
“Summit Brewing Company announces a brand new year-round beer to be released this spring: Horizon Red Ale – an emerging American hybrid ale that crosses the boundaries of styles. This red-hued ale projects an intensity of complex hops – yet allows the drinker to experience the balance and character of the malt. Floral, dry, hoppy and satisfying. Beautifully dry hopped, Horizon Red Ale will be considered a classic.”
Beer nerds only, after this point:
Malts used: Two row pale, caramel, cara-red, wheat and black.
Hops used: Horizon, Amarillo, Cascades and Summit
Original Gravity: 13.3 degrees Plato
Bittering Units: 65 to 70
Alcohol by volume: 5.7%
Color: 20 Lovibond
Um, yeah….that looks about right. Im feeling something I havent felt in a long time. Excitement over a Summit beer! Cant wait to try it.
A Summit brew with 70 IBUs? Count me way in.
My new session?
