Macfoys Red Ale
Red Ale 5 º
Macfoys Red Ale presents as an approachable Irish Red Ale, balancing a sweet-leaning profile with traditional crispness. At 5% ABV, it leads with an inviting aroma of light toffee and toasted grain. The palate is defined by a soft caramel sweetness that transitions into a biscuity mid-palate, accented by a distinctive hint of spicy character—likely derived from earthy hop additions. A subtle, clean hop bitterness provides structure without overwhelming the malt. The experience concludes with a characteristic touch of roasted grain dryness, ensuring a smooth, drinkable finish that remains true to its Celtic roots while favoring the sweeter end of the style spectrum.
Appearance. Medium reddish-copper color (12-14 SRM). Brilliant clarity. Pours with a low, off-white head with average persistence and light lacing.
Aroma. Moderate intensity malt aroma with prominent notes of toffee, caramel, and lightly toasted bread. Hop character is low, offering a subtle spicy or earthy quality. Fermentation is clean with very low fruity esters.
Taste. Initial impression is of soft caramel malt sweetness. The mid-palate features a grainy, biscuity character. Hop flavor is low and slightly spicy, providing a subtle counterpoint to the malt. Bitterness is medium-low. The finish is medium-dry with a light, lingering taste of roasted grain and a clean aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Moderate carbonation. No significant alcohol warmth. Very low astringency.
