Grace O’Malley’s Irish Red Ale

Even as a child Grace’s boldness kept her up in the rigging of her father’s merchant ship, where she was able to jump on the back of a marauder and distract him until her father could regain control of the ship. This ale created in honor of Ireland’s most appreciated and passionate, rebellious and redhaired pirate queen, this reddish brown colored, medium bodied ale, with a moderate toasted malt flavor and a moderate hop bitterness using East Kent Goldings Hops and Cascade hops. This popular favorite pairs well with cheeses and hearty soups using Specialty Carared malt from Weyerman’s and roasted barley to give its crisp fresh lovely flavor.
