It’s big, red and full of character. This assertive ruby ale is big in flavour, with hints of tropical fruit, sweet treacle and balances a bitter, hoppy finish.

500ml bottle from Lidl - Reddish amber body with a small white head. Nose is malts, toffee and red berries. Taste is a spicy mix of digestive biscuits, malts and toffee. Not too bad.

50cl bottle from Lidl, Crowthorne. Dark ruby with a fast-fading billowing ruby head; aroma of red fruit and raw cane sugar; sweet treacly taste with some spice; and a dry sugary finish. A reasonable red ale.
