Bridge Road Brewers

Irish Red·Australia·5.1% ABV·One of 20 Irish Reds in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Bridge Road Celtic Red Ale's malty and caramel character. Celtic Red Ale began as a one-off for the Celtic festival held in Beechworth and stayed in the range afterwards. It pours deep ruby under a lasting white head over a medium body. Crystal and roasted malts alongside cara red build a layered grain character: caramel and toffee up front, a fine toasted nuttiness on the finish. The hops sit well back at 22 IBU, so the beer reads malt-led throughout and closes dry rather than sticky.
