Ruby ale

[broozer]

Just brewed a copy of McMenamin's Ruby ale, a local brewery chain favorite. 1-1/8 lbs. of fresh raspberries in the secondary. According to my friend who's favorite beer is Ruby, it's exactly the same. Just the right amount of tart and sweetness in an all-day brew.

Oh man takes me back. Fresh homebrew with fruit is a REAL treat. No brewery can compete with it. Fruit in beer is real different thing than most people know.

I could go for a brew right now. Don't care that it's 1030. That looks nice.

Looks fantastic. Willing to share your recipe? I am just finishing the lagering of a pilsner for the summer boating season. Have ingredients ready for a vanilla bean milk stout and just need a full day to be able to brew it.

I could go for a pint or 2 of that! Looks and sounds delicious!

Darn that looks so tasty! I got away from making beer many years ago and switched to wine making. That there is tempting me to start again. Thanks for sharing.

That is a hobby I'd like to take up, but never got past drinking the beer.

That is a hobby I'd like to take up, but never got past drinking the beer.

I have considered it many many times, but I feel it is a really bad idea for me to A: have that much alcohol on hand and B: be able to control the amount of alcohol that it will contain. Not gonna lie, Im really impressed with myself for realizing these things and still not going through with it!........

Looks great! If I ever brewed beer again I would have to get a keg system. That bottling is a pain! I stick to spirits for now.

 

[crazymoon]

B, Your brew looks inviting!

Nice looking brew, but it looks better sitting atop of the Beerpole. LOL

Point for sure

Looks like a great beer. Had to see where it is brewed. The shipping rules gave me a chuckle considering what is "legal" in Oregon these days.

For over 30 years, Ruby has been admired by a devoted fan base and remains as she first was: simple but delicious.
