Lagunitas Brewing Company's Censored Rich Copper Ale
Pours a very dark gold-orange color. Maybe even teetering on some shade or red. Little hazy. Good finger worth of fizzy head when poured, half of which seems to be sticking around and looks very compact and uniform. Aroma definitely not exploding out of this one. Getting some very sharp caramel malt and a splash of sweetness. Some herbal hops.
This certainly lives up to the "rich" in its name. A huge explosion of caramel malt and toast. A strong ester presence; somewhat appley. Not too bitter in the finish. Some earthy hop character but definitely nothing overwhelming. Leaves a subtle biscuit flavor in the mouth. Decent carbonation. Body on the lighter side. Good stuff.
