The Style:

Heretic describes Evil Twin as follows “This blood-red ale may not be what you might expect from a malty and hoppy craft beer.  Evil twin has a rich malt character without being overly sweet.  It has a huge hop character without being overly bitter”

This beer relies on extensive flameout and dry hopping additions to achieve its signature hop nose, with only a small bittering addition 30 inutes into its 90 minute boil.  It even makes use of a second dry hopping round, receiving one last blast of Citra.
