The Brü Revü – Lagunitas Lucky 13.alt

A simple review would be to say the Lucky 13.alt is another excellent Lagunitas beer with the trademark big hops with a touch of sweetness, but that’s too easy.  The Lagunitas Lucky 13.alt is an alternative take on their Lucky 13 Imperial Red Ale that pours a dark dirty blonde with plenty of hops in the aroma.  The initial taste was like biting into a big juicy grapefruit that kept my mouth watering and wanting more.  There was a light malt on the end that adds a lingering sweetness, but it was the big sweet grapefruit flavors that kept me coming back.  The Lucky 13.alt is a seasonal offering that is only available for a short time and it’s easy for me to end this with “another excellent Lagunitas beer”.
