I review the beers I drink

Saranac – Irish Red Ale

 

Clear with a thin cap of persistent head, smells of toasted bread, herbaceous hops and subtle notes of caramel. The taste is crisp and bready, with flavors of toast and mineral water, matched to a creamy full body. The finish is dry yet low in bitterness with a nice Noble hop character, balanced out by a mild astringency and residual smoked malt notes. Overall, it’s a great ale, extremely sessionable and a nice blend of mild yet appealing flavors; simple yet effective.
