RedWillow Brewery F182 Ginger Treacle
Dark Ale 5.5 º
This British Brown Ale is a sensory homage to traditional Parkin cake, defined by a decadent fusion of black treacle and spicy ginger. The aroma opens with pungent ginger heat and the deep, burnt-sugar sweetness of molasses, layered over a foundation of nutty and toffee-forward malts. On the palate, the ginger provides a warming spice that cuts through the rich, dark treacle flavors and subtle chocolate undertones. A moderate bitterness and medium body ensure the finish remains balanced rather than cloying, leaving a lingering impression of toasted oats, dark sugar, and autumnal spices typical of the style's malt-focused profile.
Appearance. Dark reddish-brown to near-opaque mahogany (18–22 SRM). It features a moderate, creamy, light tan head with good retention and light lacing. Clarity is generally clear, though specialty ingredients may offer a slight haze.
Aroma. High intensity of spicy, fresh ginger and rich black treacle. Beneath the spice lies a sweet malt foundation of toffee, toasted nuts, and light chocolate. Low earthy hop notes and subtle dark fruit esters provide complexity without dominating.
Taste. Initial impression of warming ginger spice and deep molasses sweetness. The malt flavor is pronounced, offering layers of toasted bread, caramel, and a hint of roasted nuttiness. Hop bitterness is medium-low, balancing the residual sweetness of the treacle. The finish is medium-dry with a lingering ginger and toffee aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate. A gentle, pleasant warmth is present, derived from both the ginger and the moderate alcohol content. No significant astringency.
