Late Red is a complex, richly-flavoured autumn hop ale. With an appropriately Autumnal auburn hue, this premium beer achieves a perfect balance between rich, dark malt flavours, and a strong, robust hoppiness.
The finest pale ale malt and gently-kilned crystal malt is brewed with Cascade and East Kent Goldings to create a hoppy flavour, double enhanced with the late copper addition of East Kent Goldings and Cascades added to the cask for racking.
Plum, prunes, raisins, a touch of toffee and tropical fruit are just of the flavour flourishing beneath the crimson-copper coloured cloak of this eminently easy-drinking ale.

At a pub in Greenwich. Nice pour, red color and a nice, lacing head. Light malt aroma. Flavor is all malt as well, dry, grain, good palate but flavor is light and subtle.

Caña Cask Ale en The Bloomsbury Tabern 06..11..2015 zona Museo britanico. Color bronce transparente. Nada de espuma. Aromas y sabores maltosos con bastantes toques de caramelos tostados con ligero amargo final algo herbaceo y seco pero no muy intenso y algo duradero. Cuerpo ligero muy fácil de beber nada de espuma. Buena.

zapach przyjemny, ale dość lekki. toffi, karmel, owoce jesienne (dojrzałe gruszki, jabłka, trochę moreli). piana raczej mało obfita, stara się trzymać, ale jej nie idzie. kolor karmelowy/rubinowy, głęboki, klarowny, ładny. w smaku pełne, chlebowe, karmelowe i toffi, okrągłe, słodkawe z bardzo lekko palonymi nutami. goryczka wyraźna, karmelowo ziołowo przyprawowa, z lekkimi nutami tytoniu, ale nie bardzo wysoka. dość krótka. nasycenie raczej wysokie.
