Mountaineer Brewing Red Ale

Beer-a-Day #154

Mountaineer Red Ale was designed by our brewers with full malt flavor in mind. This deep amber brew was crafted with rich caramel malts, Munich malts, and a special blenc of hops from New Zealand and the Pacific Northwest. You will find this ale well balanced and complex, a great choice anytime of year.

Very malty aroma. It smells almost like a barleywine. Very sweet with a bit of roastiness. Not bad.

Mountaineer Brewing Pale Ale

Beer-a-Day #142

From the label:

Mountaineer Pale Ale is our unique interpretation of the classic American Pale Ale. This frothy, copper-golden ale is hand-crafted using only the finest malted barley, pure water and a specially-blended brewer’s yeast. Finally, we employ generous amounts of Northwest Ahtanum and Tomahawk hops for a floral aroma and a subtle hint if [sic] citrus in the finish.

Much more floral than citrus, but with a decent amount of hop bite and a nice finish.
