Beer Description

Red sky at night, a sailor’s delight. Unlike most examples of the style, ours is a dark amber coming from the use of 5 different malts. Mesabi Red Ale angles more towards a Scottish ale, more malty than sweet.

We won’t go so far as to call it our red-headed step child, but our robust American amber ale sprung more from inspired alchemy than any color-by-numbers recipe. Today, we front-load Red with five different malts, including Munich and Belgian aromatic, for a rich mahogany hue, then balance it with three hop varieties. This creates a potent, full-bodied brew with firm bitterness and a distinctive touch of dried strawberries in its finish. Named for the vast iron range that sustains Minnesota ‘s Arrowhead Region, Mesabi Red rewards a hard day’s work with strength and complexity.
