Named after the sandstone barn in which the brewery is situated, distinctively coloured by Munich and Crystal malts a cracking stronger ale.
Again we named a beer after our new location and used both Munich Malt and Colour 400 Crystal Malt to give a warm ruby red glow to the beer to help the beer reflect its name. As always the beer is brewed down to a final gravity of 1008, making it depetively (if not dangerously) light for a 4.4% abv beer. Once more a selection of British hops help compliment and lift the red malty ale into a fine strong beer.
