Kimo’s Colorada
Scottish and Iris Ale 4.6 º
Kimo’s Colorada presents as a restrained American Amber Ale, leaning into the lower-gravity end of the style with its approachable 4.6% ABV. It offers a subtle sensory profile defined by gentle caramel and toasty malt notes. The reddish-copper hue hints at the moderate use of crystal malts, providing a light sweetness that balances a low, clean bitterness. While typical versions might showcase bold American hops, this interpretation keeps the floral and citrus hop character in the background, resulting in a sessionable, easy-drinking character with a clean, dry finish. This profile aligns with the brewer’s intent for a restrained and approachable reddish ale.
Appearance. Deep amber to reddish-copper in color (SRM 12–15) with good clarity. Topped by a moderately sized, off-white head with fair retention and light lacing.
Aroma. Moderate-low intensity with a focus on sweet caramel and lightly toasted bread. A subtle, low hop presence offers faint notes of pine or citrus. Fermentation is clean with negligible fruity esters.
Taste. Initial malt sweetness featuring soft caramel and a touch of biscuity grain. Hop flavor is low, contributing minor floral notes. Bitterness is mild (approx. 25 IBU), providing just enough balance against the malt sweetness. The finish is medium-dry and clean.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light to medium body with a smooth texture. Carbonation is moderate, providing a gentle prickle on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is absent given the low strength.
