Green Flash Brewery: Hophead Red

OK, I was at Plew's Brews in North Portland and sampled a great brew from The Green Flash Brewery! It was their "Hop Head Red" - Now that was a great red!

The official web page says "Resinous hop character and bitterness balance the rich carmel malt base. We took it a step further and Amarillo dry-hopped the brew to 45 ibu's, creating refreshing and savory hop flavors and aromas. Is it red IPA? That's your call."
Is it an IPA? No. But, would an IPA lover enjoy this one? - Yes.
I have to say it was a favorite! Nothing that will change the world yet...great.
Stats are: ABV of 6% and an IBU of 45

    Hop City sells a keg every 2 hrs...
    A more hoppy IPA is just minutes away in most cases.
