Beer Profile

Planktonic NW Red

This Northwest Red Ale pours a deep ruby hue, balancing substantial malt character with assertive hop bitterness typical of the style. At 6% ABV and 57 IBU, it features a complex hop profile derived from eight different varietals, lending layered notes of pine, citrus zest, and resin. A subtle, dry floral note of hibiscus surfaces on the finish, complementing the roasted caramel and toasted bread flavors of the malt base without adding sweetness. This is a robust, hop-forward red ale with a nuanced botanical complexity.
