Ruby Red Ale
An auburn-red ale with subtle malt undertones and a pleasing aroma of vine fruits, followed by distinctive spicy, peppery and pleasantly woody flavours. Rye Crystal malt goes into the mash. The ale comes from a brewery founded in 1996 in former farm buildings beside the moated St. Peter's Hall, deep in the Suffolk countryside.
