Red Hearted IPA

Red Hearted IPA is a bold, ruby-hued American IPA that blends citrusy hop flavor with rich, toasty malts. Deep in color and layered in complexity, it’s a striking balance of bright hops and roasted malt character—a unique twist on the Hearted tradition.

Description:

Red Hearted IPA from Bell’s Brewery takes the hop-forward legacy of the Hearted series and builds it on a robust malt base, creating a red IPA that’s full-bodied and flavorful. Brewed with Centennial hops and specialty malts, it offers a fusion of piney bitterness, citrus zest, and toasted caramel notes. This is a beer for those who love the bite of hops and the richness of malt, perfectly intertwined.

Tasting Notes:

  • Appearance: Deep amber to reddish copper with a creamy off-white head.

  • Aroma: Grapefruit rind, pine resin, toasted malt, and hints of dark caramel.

  • Palate: Balanced and bold—bright citrus and pine hop flavors meet notes of roasted grain, toffee, and biscuit. A dry, slightly bitter finish rounds it out.

  • Bitterness Level: Medium-High

  • Alcohol: 7.0% ABV

Origin:

Brewed by Bell’s Brewery in Michigan, Red Hearted IPA is a newer release in the Hearted series, offering a maltier take on their signature Centennial hop showcase. It’s a nod to the red IPAs of the early craft scene, reimagined with Bell’s signature balance and flavor precision.

Serving Suggestions:

Best served slightly chilled in a pint or tulip glass to show off the color and aroma.

Perfect for:

  • Fans of malt-forward IPAs or hoppy ambers

  • Pairing with roasted meats, barbecue, or aged cheeses

  • Cooler weather, campfire nights, or when you want something with a little more depth
