Lagunitas - Imperial Red

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff

I'm starting to think Lagunitas just puts different color dyes into the same beer and sells it with different labels.

Pretty tropical, a little sweet. It's red, but its not really that malty (compared to Nugget Nectar). Its good, and I'd recommend it. It's just not a typical amber/red ale.

Troegs Nugget Nectar

Called an imperial red, but easily mistaken for an IPA/DIPA.

Pretty bitter. Really delicious. I'd buy this fairly often if it was available all year.
