Late Red cask

Aug 19, 2003 1 Replies

One of the most interesting bottled beers tried in recent times was Kent brewer's Shepherd Neame's (s?) seasonal "Late Red" ale along with their also seasonal Early Bird Ale.



Q. I understand that this is available in cask form for a short period of the year - is that right? Has anyone here tried it; and can it be ordered through the beer specialist distributors?



I just imagine it is even more of a killer on draught.

I tried this last year on draught in the Rugby Tavern near Russell Square in London, and it was SUPERB. That was in November. Shep's also produced a Christmas beer called Herald in 2001 but I didn't see it anywhere last year. That was worth trying as well.

Cheers, Lee.
