Ruby Sunset captures the essence of a sessionable Irish Red Ale, pouring a brilliant ruby red with a delicate off-white head. The sensory profile is defined by a gentle foundation of biscuity malt and soft toffee, which provides a backbone for an unusually vibrant hop character. Distinctive notes of zesty citrus and dark blackcurrant emerge on the nose and palate, adding a refreshing modern twist to the traditional malt-forward base. At 4.1% ABV, it remains light and crisp, concluding with a characteristic touch of roasted dryness and a clean, lingering berry finish that invites another sip.
Appearance.9–14 SRM. Medium reddish-copper to ruby red in color. Clear with a low, off-white to tan head showing average persistence.
Aroma.Moderate intensity with a base of neutral-grainy malt and light caramel or toffee. Noticeable hop character for the style, featuring hints of citrus and blackcurrant over a clean fermentation profile.
Taste.Initial soft caramel malt sweetness moves into a grainy, biscuity palate. Hop flavors of citrus zest and blackcurrant are prominent but balanced by a medium-low bitterness. The finish is medium-dry with a subtle hint of roasted grain dryness, leaving a clean aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with moderate carbonation. Smooth and refreshing on the palate with no alcohol warmth and a crisp, non-astringent mouthfeel.
