The Bottom Line
I'm not sure how long this ale will be around. It was originally brewed as a one time batch to celebrate Redhook's 25th anniversary but according to the staff its been quite a hit so we might see it become a regular or seasonal brew. For now it's only available on tap at the Woodinville, WA brewery.
The beer is pleasant and very drinkable. Fan's of English brown ale would appreciate it.

Guide Review - Tasting Notes and Review of Redhook's 25th Anniversary Ale
The beer is very deep amber in appearance. It looks almost black in the glass but when I held it up to the light I could see that it's amber and very clear.
The aroma and the flavor are dominated by a very nice roasted quality. There is only enough hops in it for balance.
The mouthfeel of this ale is very thin and almost watery.
