Red Chair NWPA is named after the oldest operating lift at Mt. Bachelor here in Central Oregon. And just as the locals line up for that fabled mountain ride, they flock to our Bend brew pub whenever it goes on tap. One thing we've learned, "when the brew pub talks, listen." For the past two decades, the serious beer fanatics down there seldom miss when we've hit on something truly special. What makes this copper colored beauty so wildly popular? As a debut Northwest Pale Ale, it's an adventure all its own. It has a plush body with satiny caramel flavors derived from seven varieties of malt. Yet, despite it all, it remains a hop-forward ale with that distinctive citrusy punch. Just minus any mouth-puckering bitterness.

Early spring release is right. This came out last month and I almost didn't buy it because I thought it was a hold over from last year.lol...AWESOME 4 SURE! Cheers Chris!

@monkeycaveman i was actually corrected by them, its actually considered their Winter release which I thought was strange because Jubeale come out in the winter.

@warmcokecola This one has a lot more hop bite and a bit more malt backbone to it.
