Castle Eden Red is a beautifully crafted ruby ale from one of England's most historic breweries — brewed in Castle Eden, County Durham, since 1826. Deep in colour and rich in character, this is a beer that rewards those who appreciate real depth of flavour.
Tasting Notes
Pouring a striking ruby red with a rich, creamy head, Castle Eden Red draws its character from a carefully balanced blend of pale, light, and dark crystal malts, with torrefied wheat ensuring that signature creamy finish. At 4.4% ABV, generous helpings of Willamette hops deliver a juicy, full-bodied beer with a satisfying hop character that lingers beautifully.
Perfect For
An ideal gift for red ale enthusiasts or a well-deserved treat for yourself. Pairs wonderfully with slow-cooked meats, game, sharp cheddars, and hearty North East fare.
Allergen Advice: Contains malted barley (gluten) and wheat (gluten).
