Greene King Brewing
Suffolk, England

Irish Red Ale
ABV: 5.0%
IBU: Unknown
RATING
93
This is one of our favorite Irish ales. First, it comes in a can with a widget, which releases nitrogen when the beer is opened. Nitrogen is usually reserved for stouts, but we are glad that Wexford uses it -- it gives this beer creaminess and a long lasting, thick head that's complemented by a soft orange tint and a caramelized, toffeelike nose. This beer should be savored so as to enjoy the sweet and fruity aspects, which are more prevalent here than in most examples of the style. Additionally, the hop profile is very low and almost nonexistent in terms of bitterness. We're proud to call Wexford the easiest drinking beer we tasted this issue.
