LAGUNITAS CENSORED COPPER ALE

Lagunitas Brewing Co., Petaluma, California

Yes, the color of this refreshing ale is true to its name. Topped by a promising head of foam and tinged with crystal and Munich malts, it’s a sweet one, but it’s balanced by an influx of sharp roasted caramel/toffee notes in aroma and flavor and a smooth and compelling hop bitterness. This sparkling red ale is a cause for gentle reminiscence.
