Taste Notes

The rich toffee and honey flavours with subtle biscuit notes from the malt are balanced with the light tropical fruit and lychee flavours of the Topaz hop and accentuated by the passionfruit and peach aromas of the Galaxy hop.

Notes

Autumn is the colour of amber as all the leaves start turning gold with the approach of Winter. As the weather starts to cool, tastes turn from lighter ales and lagers to more full bodied ales that can be savoured. The Buxom Redhead (A.K.A. the "Curvy Ranga") is a voluptuous, full-bodied Amber Ale that is perfectly balanced with Australian Topaz and Galaxy hops. The only thing better that a Buxom Redhead, is two Buxom Redheads.
