Red ale is one of the two classic Irish beer styles, the other being dry stout. This brilliant, copper-colored interpretation, the Weyermann® Red Empress, with its brown-hued crown of foam, delivers the aromas and flavors the visual impression promises. There are plenty of earthy and typically Irish notes of red berries, smooth caramel, and nutty bread crust. Both sweet malt and bitter hop aromas are in harmonious balance as soft, rum-like undertones of barrique and warming alcohol transition into a mildly crisp and smooth finish.
Not surprisingly, this beer is a perfect companion to hearty stews, lamb and mutton, and boar. It can also complement rich desserts such as scones with clotted cream and lemon curd, a scrumptious Black Forest cake, or Tiramisu.
Ingredients: Water, Weyermann® barley malt, hops, yeast
