More yard work and time outside today, overcast and the wind is coming up - #hereBeDragons 🌬️ 🐉 💨

Take a break in the Crimson Keep, an excellent BA red ale from #dragonsMilk

Malty cherry lead, notes of toffee and oak, with a tart lasting finish. Refreshing!

A glass of red ale next to a bottle. Beer made by Browar Maryensztadt.

A California Smithwick's. Nice red/amber color, faint malty nose, a beautiful dense cream-colored head, caramel malty taste (but not sweet) with just a hint of hop bitterness and modest carbonation, clean finish. Low alcohol. In other words, Smithwick's. $17/16oz-4-pack, but a minority-owned brewery and Made In America! 🇺🇲

A pilsner glass filled with a dark amber fluid a topped with cream-colored foam stands next to a beer can. The can is themed in red and block, with a sketch of a proud-looking horse's head. The label reads “Del Cielo Brewing Company Savage Red, Irish Red Ale.”

Puts, curti. Diferente do q venho tomando. Tem um gosto de caramelo e o amargo vem e sai. #AlCapone #RedAle

Hum... Malty 😋

Essa é mais bonita do que apareceu na foto, mas é bem gostosa.

Find some focus in the Crimson Keep, Here Be Dragons!

#dragonsMilk has malty cherry flavors, caramel background and a tart finish. Barrel-aged too!

This one has a best buy date that is 4 months from now. It was brewed about 2 months ago. This doesn't make sense.

Happy Mother’s Day! After taking my partner of 34 years to Costco (I’m a romantic) we’re kicking back with some good wine for her and a #DragonsMilk Crimson Keep for me!

Barrel-aged Red Ale, Malty sweetness, cherry and caramel notes. Another brilliant dragon from #NewHollandBrewing

@enog I saw the label and immediately thought of you. 🙂 The brewer managed to work in a shark and red liquid, withing killing anything.

My son likes it a lot; I still haven't decided. It's more amber than red. Intense hops and intense malt, well balanced, although more bitter than I"d really want in an amber; I'm not sure I'd describe an ale that's this bitter as “crushable.” There's a lot of sweet pine/herbal/medicinal flavor at the front. Still a good one to try for folks who like that dual intensity of hops and malt.

Cool, jetzt erst mal ein Murphie's Red zum Einstimmen. Ist ein tolles #Irish #RedAle. Schöne Farbe und kräftig fruchtiger Geschmack. 👍😎🍻 #Ale #beer #BierKultur #pivo #Prost #nazdraví #BeerTasting #craftbeerhour #CraftBeer #bier #BeerTastingclub #cambabavaria

It was a very tough week for us, flying to Orlando for our son’s soccer games and experiencing and following up with an emergency situation. But I now see the things will go back to normal. So, winding down the week with this red ale and mind preparing for the busy weekend - kids’ swim training, soccer games, and Japanese school, maybe flying fishing if I can 🤔 I also need to work on a lot of things that I couldn’t do during the past few weeks 😞 It will be okay, I think 🤔

@enog Yep, I had the same reaction to the label as you did. A lot of the hoppy reds play off the same idea, e.g. Pizza Port Shark Bite, Evans Joaquin Dead. Pipeworks is an outstanding brewery, and I'd agree Blood of the Unicorn is a good example of the style.

That said, my own taste runs more to the European reds with less hops and more malt: Strike's Colossus of Clout, Fort Point's Westphalia, Federation Utopia Planitia (a rye), and of course the true Irish reds like Smithwicks. But I love trying the hoppy ones, and given your fondness for IPAs I suspect you might like the hoppy reds more.

An experienced beer shop staff recommended me to try this red ale. I also remembered that @alameth was tooting about red ales🤔
Although I am not comfortable with the horror label design, the beer itself is not bad - I am comfortable bringing this beer to our friend’s house😄
Malty and bready, but still very hoppy like IPA. Also, the beer head is very frothy and looks great. This seems to work as an introduction to red ale for someone like me 😊
Goes well with dark chocolate 😋

A glass of red ale and its can are on a pine wooden table. The can has an aggressive bloody unicorn, which probably reflects the color of this ale - dark amber red.

While quaffing the Quad I had thoughts of #CentralWatersBrewing Call Me Old Fashioned, so had to compare side-by-side!

The #BoulevardBrewing Quad is SO much better, smoother and less harsh on the finish. The Bitters in the Old Fashioned really change the finish and hide the cherry notes.

Central Waters Brewing “Call me old fashioned” side-by-side with Boulevard Brewing “Bourbon Barrel Quad”. The Old Fashioned is a much lighter shade of red

@enog I'll see your IPA... and raise you a Red Ale. 🙂 Reds have been my “go to” beer since I discovered Boont Amber in 1992. But there haven't been a lot of choices. Now new reds are appearing all over the place.

This Pizza Port Shark Bite, from Carlsbad, California, is an excellent example of the newcomers. Hoppy all the way through like an West Coast IPA, but malty and roasted, with not too much of either, a real bite and very little sweetness. Holds its own against by category favorite, Federation Utopia Planitia. I'm thinking I need to put these new American Reds into a different category; Boont Amber, Smithwicks, and O'hara's Red are all outstanding ales, but with a lot less bite.

Starting a red beer brew... Not decided if it's going to be hoppy or not... #IPA or #RedAle or #RedIPA

Reviewing three beers from Vermont's #SwitchbackBrewing that the brewery sent me a short while ago: Karsten #Lager, Wai-iti Cat Double #IPA, and Roasted Red Hoppy #RedAle.

Doing a repeat on Call Me Old Fashioned on a hot day in MN, and my take is pretty much a repeat too 😀

#CentralWatersBrewing takes an ale spin on and old fashioned with strong cherry, brandy, and bourbon notes, subtle orange and a bitter/sour finish

Colder is better, a nice side trip outside the #stoutiverse

@beersofmastodon #redAle #barrelAged #oldFashioned

Central Waters Brewing Call Me Old Fashioned barrel aged red ale

My favorite beer for the past year, and one my son and I agree on. Most rye ales I've tried are more like barleywine. Here the rye is subtle, adding some character, a bit of spicy sweetness, very different from malt, that balances the moderately strong herbal hops. I love the nose, the taste, and the finish. 🥰

There's some really solid beer in the East Bay. I need to get out there more, and (if needed) crash at my daughter's place if I've had a little too much.

Meanwhile I need to rethink how I photograph my pours. I like what @enog has been doing. These shots on my workbench are fun, but really don't show off the beer's color.

#Beer #FederationBrewing #Oakland #RedAle #CraftBeer #DrinkLocal

Interrupted #stoutThursday due to an event tomorrow, we’ll do #barrelAgedWednesday with this interesting brew from #CentralWatersBrewing

Call Me Old Fashioned steps into the mixed drink taste realm with strong cherry 🍒 brandy and bourbon notes, subtle orange and a slight bitter/sour finish. It’s a mid-body summer sipper, serve it cold!
