Our ruby ale Red Macgregor brewed to 4.0 ABV. Deliciously perfumed with hints of spiciness and toasted malts. Rich hop fruits giving way to a clean dry refreshing hop bitterness.

Bottle from Morrisons. Clear amber/ruby body with a thin off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of chocolate, earth, caramel and malt loaf. Flavour of toffee, stewed tea and dried cranberries. Thin to medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. Tasty and moreish. The colour is great and there’s a nice sweet edge to it.

500ml bottle bought as part of a delivery from Beers of Europe and drunk at home. Brownish red and clear with a quickly dissipating beige head. Bright bread malts, hints of berries and caramel. With so many sweet beers, it's nice to have one that is deliciously bitter, settling in the back of the throat with a light herbal flavour. Light body with carbonation slightly on the heavy side.
