Review: Redds Wicked Blood Orange
Redds Wicked Blood Orange Ale was recently introduced. This limited, fall seasonal malt beverage weighs in at 8% alcohol, and joins Redds three year round Wicked flavors which include Black Cherry, Apple, and Mango. Redds promises future seasonal flavors. Miller-Coors first launched Redds Apple Ale September 2012. After adding several flavors to the Redds product line, all canned at 5% alcohol, they doubled down with their Wicked line of 8% ales August 2014, with the release of Redds Wicked Apple Ale. Blood Orange is available in 12 packs of 10 ounce cans, and also 24 oz. and 16 oz. individual cans. Redds Wicked Blood Orange is brewed as a beer. Caramel color and natural flavors added.The aroma is apple and orange spice with a malty backing. The apple cider and orange spice drop entry builds to a tart and juicy blood orange peak. It fades with orange baby aspirin flavor, and finishes bittersweet with some malt flavor, and a mild burn as I swallow.
