Pipeworks Blood of the Unicorn Hoppy Red Ale.6.5 % ABV. 69 IBU.
Pipeworks Brewing, Chicago, IL.
Slightly hazed, thoroughly crimson hued, large and lasting creamy head atop.
In the nose: Big hops and bigger malt expressing themselves. Bold, with a plethora of fruity esters.
In the mouth: Bright, malty, plenty of hops, but low bitterness. Exceptionally smooth, while terrifically hoppy. Slightly sweet. Medium bodied, long, malty finish. Perfectly balanced. Quite tasty. I'm liking this a lot.
In this epic battle, the Blood of the Unicorn has been shed by the sword of the deadly assassin of the east. One sip of this aggressively hopped red ale clearly reveals what drives these, the greatest of, hop heads of lore. Is this the end of the mythical horned horse? Or will he rise like the phoenix to fight another day
