COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This ale mixes old Irish heritage with a solidly American twist, not unlike many firefighters in the fire service today. It is an ode not only to the brewer’s other love, but to this beer’’s red color and firemen everywhere. You will find this beer to have a defined malt component (Irish Red lineage) with a mild to moderate hop character (American influence). It was brewed with the intention of introducing beginning beer drinkers to the idea of color without overpowering its ultimate drinkability.

"It was brewed with the intention of introducing beginning beer drinkers to the idea of color without overpowering its ultimate drinkability." Mission accomplished and explains why the blonde was so short on beer flavors. Too sweet, as most drinks aimed at non-drinkers are. Hey, I remember my rum & coke days.

On tap at brewery. Murky and unfiltered reddish. Nose is copper, musty malt. Light body. Taste is much better. Bready malt, piney hop bite mid-palate. Finishes dry and malty. Not bad.
