Handwritten notes: I'm 3 beers into the 62 different ones I've recently brought back from the US and A, and I have yet to be hop-bombed. While I'm sure that will come, this beer is a pleasant billowy maple syrup nutty piece of work. This is what Rickard's Red aspires to be. It's still not my favourite style, but alright for a early-summer eve. I'd probably look this beer up at some point in the future just to say w'sup. I wouldn't seek it out, but (as many a lascivious old man has said) I wouldn't kick it out of bed for snoring.
