COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our brewmaster, Mats Ekholm, was inspired by the red brown granite of the Åland islands when he developed Stallhagen US Red Ale.

Before Prohibition, American Red Ale was a popular variation of the Irish Amber ale in the US. This top-yeast beer was made of domestic, American raw material. The ale is relatively light but clearly hopped with definite aromas of dried strawberries. The full bodied taste has notes of coffee with smokiness from roast coffee.

TET (1094) - FINLAND - OCT 26, 2012
A beautiful, reddish brown beer with a long-lasting, big and beige head. Aroma of caramell, fruits, lemony and slightly wooden hoppyness, aroma is quite nice and aromatic. Taste is nutty and slightly toffeeish, medium strong hoppyness, that continues to long and wooden, dry aftertaste. Medium bodied, nicely smooth to drink. I got positive feeling from this beer, tastefull and enough of aromatic nuancees despite of wooden characters.
