Roxanne: The Dawn of a New Beer

Roxanne: The Dawn of a New Beer

We've brought back the Red IPA. Following the success of Eric The Red, here's the follow up Red IPA: Roxanne. Inspired by the Viking nautical theme of Eric, Roxanne is a Persian name meaning “Dawn” and the reference of "red sky in the morning sailors take warning". Even though we refer to the dawn and morning time, it doesn’t imply that this is a breakfast beer. Then again there are no rules when it comes to drinking beer as tasty as this. A wonderful amber red colour, which comes from the specialty malts, but used in a way that the isn’t overly malty. The malt delivers a sweet caramelly malt note that marries perfectly with the fruity hops, and highlighted with the piney character from the Centennial hops.
