A Masterful Blend of Roasted Malts
The brewers utilise a complex blend of malts, including Dark Crystal, to achieve the beer’s signature deep red appearance. Consequently, these grains provide a warming base of toffee and biscuit flavours. Additionally, they add a generous handful of fresh American hops to create a punchy, bitter finish. This meticulous recipe ensures a well-rounded ale where rich malt sweetness meets a sharp citrus aroma.
