American Amber Ale IRV Celtic Red (St. Paddy's American Amber)

Great, hoppy, deep red American Amber that starts citrusy, with a palate dominated by malty and roasted notes, and finishes with a residual sweetness. Perfect pleaser for St. Paddy's Day, or for any time! This one is a hit at my bar, and I have made it a seasonal beer.

Enjoy!!
