The urban brewing legends at Fortitude Valley’s Soapbox Beer are playing a delightfully clever trick on your tastebuds with Hoodwinked. This brilliant Red Rye Ale trades conventional malt simplicity for a beautifully complex, spice-forward profile that will keep you guessing. It pours a striking, deep mahogany crimson with a tight, tan-colored crown. On the nose, it hits you with a rich and alluring aromatic payload of dark toffee, artisanal rye bread, and a subtle hint of citrus peel hop oils. The palate is medium-to-full bodied and wonderfully layered, pairing a velvety biscuit malt base with the distinct, peppery spice of specialty rye grains. Balancing its rich, sweet core against a firm, snappy hop bitterness, it finishes dry and exceptionally satisfying. It is an beautifully structured, highly conversational drop engineered for when you want a little more depth in your glass.
