Luck of the Irish Red Ale – Russell Brewing

By Mike @mikescraftbeer

From Surrey's Russell Brewing comes their "Luck of the Irish Red Ale". The beer pours a deep copper red colour with a tan head. The aroma consists of toffee, sweetness and mild fruit. The flavour is of caramel, toffee, mild toasted malts and some bitterness. The beer comes in at 5% with an IBU of 30. This is an enjoyable easy drinking Red Ale.

Commercial Description: Bitter is not always better when it comes to craft beer. As a beer style, this red ale is intended to be malt-forward, offering toffee and caramel sweetness which is beautifully balanced by a restrained use of hops. The natural rich red colour comes from the generous use of imported roasted barley and specialty malts. Finishes clean and smooth, leaving you wanting more.
