Red Nitro Ale
A reddish Irish ale that sets out to avoid the cloying sweetness the style is often known for. Fruit comes first, lively and bright, followed by a measure of malty caramel from crystal malt; a little black malt deepens the colour. The balance tips towards fresh and aromatic rather than sweet. Galena, Nugget and East Kent Goldings supply the hops, wheat is part of the grist, and the beer is served on nitrogen.
