Fixed Gear is a big, bold American red ale. It pours a glaring crimson tone with a rocky white head and a brilliant floral-citrus aroma, thanks to an aggressive Centennial, Cascade, and Chinook dry hopping. Its immodest malty spine and intrepid caramel flavors flavors blow in via gratuitous amounts of 2-row pale, and dark caramel malts. A balanced citrus bite comes from the Chinook and Cascade hops followed shortly by mild, fruity esters from the ale yeast.
