Thomond Red Ale
An Irish red ale built on a generous portion of roasted specialty malt. In the glass it is deep ruby, verging on brown, and tastes boldly malty, with a pronounced caramel flavour and a slight sweetness. Noble hops add a honeyed, earthy aroma, and the finish is smooth and dry. The name Thomond refers to the historic kingdom of north Munster.
