O'Hara's Irish Red
Informações
“Brewed true to it’s heritage, the O’Hara family have gone back to basics and brew this fine Irish ale as it used to be brewed – with natural ingredients and no artificial additives”. Formerly known as Moling’s Red Ale and now carrying the family name of the brewery founders, this full-bodied Irish red, ruby in colour, is fruity and aromatic with a distinctive hop character balanced with a generous blend of sweet malts and has a distinctive roast finish.
TASTING NOTES:
Description: Traditional Irish Red Ale 4.3% ABV
Appearance: Ruby red in colour and pours with a dense lasting white head.
Aroma: There is an unmistakable fruity and almost herbal quality to the aroma due to the late addition of Mt. Hood hops.
Flavour: A traditional light hop flavour balances the sweet malty caramel taste which finishes with a distinctive roast bite.
Aftertaste: The addition of a pinch of roast barley during the brewing process lends a distinctive bite which is balanced by a crisp medium bitterness.
FOOD PAIRINGS:
Pairs well with any roast dishes or barbequed food.

Aroma maltado com notas de maltes tostados, caramelos, alcaçuz e lúpulos herbáceos.
Sabor de minerais, maltes tostados e torrados, caramelos, especiarias, lúpulos herbáceos, terrosos e levemente picantes, peras, leve feno e até um pouco de fumaça. Retrogosto seco e amargo.
Corpo leve com carbonatação média.
Uma Irish Red Ale, não muito doce, saborosa, muito bem balanceada e com um relativo ótimo “drinkability”. Agora o estilo faz mais sentido para mim, depois de provas esta referência.

Aroma de malte tostado e caramelo.
Na boca um delicado amargor aliado ao bom malte de média torrefação.
Uma boa Irish Red Ale, fácil de beber e refrescante!
