Roes Red (Batch 7)

Описание

Presenting batch #7 of our Flanders-style red ale, Roes Red—named after the Belgian town of Roeselare where the style originally developed. This is the third batch of Roes Red to be aged in our 1000-gallon Barolo cask from Italy, housed in our Carlsbad taproom. And, for every batch of beer that’s aged in the cask, we place some in bottles and kegs to be enjoyed, and leave a portion leftover in the cask to go into the next batch. Batch #7 contains a 50/50 blend of new fresh Roes Red and a portion of both two- and three-year old previous Roes Red batches. The result is a reddish-mahogany colored ale with notes of oak, dried dark cherry, red currants and toast. The complexity of this beer is further driven by Winslow’s proprietary blend of yeast strains—Belgian in origin—which produce sour lactic and acetic characteristics. A fresh take on a classic style, Roes Red is beautifully intricate and delightfully refreshing.
