8 Wired "Tall Poppy" India Red Ale - New Zealand (ABV 7%)

8 Wired are remarkable in always producing beers I enjoy and "Tall Poppy" is no exception.
It poured a lovely ruby colour with a darkish tan head, the aroma was mostly fruity hop very reminiscent of an IPA.

8 Wired use 4 different Hops (Warrior, Columbus, Simcoe and Amarillo) and 4 different Malts (including Wheat Malt) to brew this beer. It has a maltier taste than the excellent "Hopwired IPA" and even has a hint of sour on the palate.

A very good beer but I did prefer "Hopwired".
