Red Dragon Brewery "Rose of Sharon Welsh Ale"
$5 / pint at the brewery on 17 June 2017
While the Red Dragon Brewery might not be proficient at every beer style, they're certainly good at producing English style ales - or shall I correct myself and say Welsh ales.
The Rose of Sharon pours a clear deep-amber/copper colored body beneath a short head of white that unfortunately displays limited head retention and little to no lacing (dirty bar glass perhaps?). The aroma is limited to toasty, grainy malt, but the flavor is fuller. It's toasty, grainy and bready, with what seems like a bit of brown malt or an edge of roasted barley, and a mild int of yeasty fruitiness (apple, pear). Leafy hops liven it a bit, and a restrained bitterness assures that it still comes out mainly dry in the finish while still allowing some malty sweetness upfront.
It's medium-bodied and smooth across the palate which makes it easy to drink, and at 4.5% ABV it's a perfect session ale as it's not too strong while still offering enough flavor to keep you interested for more than one or two.
