Moe makes a cameo in the background.
I can't count how many times that I haven't been able to decide what I wanted. Lunch. Video games. Elective plastic surgeries. If only there were a fruit flinging bastard who could help me choose. This choice was pretty easy. With a big display, it immediately caught my attention. I picked up a sixer, not from the refridgerated section (definitely not my 1st choice, but oh well). I put it in the fridge last night and have been looking forward to it since.
I have always liked Woodchuck's apple cider, only on a rare occasion, but I still enjoy them. I hoped that Redd's would be something similar. Woodchucks have a slight taste of green apple, while Redd's is....well....red. While they are not as sour as Woodchucks, I still found that Redd's was an enjoyable brew. I use the term "brew" loosely. It doesn't taste or have the texture of a beer or "ale" at all. It really is more like a cider which is totally fine. Redd's is a great break from the heavy beers that fill my fridge.
Redd's is very sweet and light. You would be wise to pick a pack up at your local shoppe. Yes, shoppe. How fancy. One quick note on the bottle. It is, in fact, in a clear bottle. It's pretty common knowledge that beers in a clear bottle are more susceptible to sunlight and could be affected by them. While there is nothing wrong with my pack, I can tell you to be careful of buying these packs if they are left on the "showroom" floor. Nothing is nastier than bad beer.
Let's wrap it up. Should we drink Redd's Apple Ale?
Yes.
As always, thanks for reading. If you have any suggestions for the blog, or if you have a request for a brew that you would like to see me review, you can leave a comment below or give me a shout on Facebook or Twitter @chydiddy.
