La Subirana Irish Red Extra
This Extra interpretation of an Irish Red Ale presents a deeper sensory experience than its session-strength counterparts. A specific blend of three toasted and caramelized malts yields a striking reddish-copper hue and a rich bouquet of toffee and soft biscuit. On the palate, initial caramel sweetness transitions into a grainy, toasted character, followed by the style-defining hint of dry roasted grain. Despite the elevated 6% ABV, the profile remains clean and smooth, balancing moderate malt depth with a gentle earthy hop presence and a crisp, slightly dry finish that invites another sip.
Appearance. Medium reddish-copper with brilliant clarity. Pours with a persistent, off-white to light tan head that leaves moderate lacing on the glass.
Aroma. Moderate malt intensity featuring prominent notes of toasted bread and sweet caramel. A subtle toffee undertone is present, accompanied by very low earthy hop notes and a clean fermentation profile.
Taste. Initial soft caramel and toffee sweetness gives way to a grainy, biscuity malt middle. Bitterness is medium-low, providing balance against the malt. The finish is medium-dry with a signature touch of roasted grain dryness and lingering toast.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Moderate carbonation. A very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present due to the higher gravity.
