Cheshire Red
A deep amber-red ale with hints of caramelised biscuit, currants and stone fruit, a smooth bitterness and a distinctive toffee apple finish; mellow and warming. It nods to Cheshire's sandstone and to Ethelfleda, the Lady of Mercia who ruled these lands from her castle at Runcorn Gap. All ingredients are British, including the hops Harlequin, Olicana and Jester.
