Beer 294 - Ben Nevis Ruby Red IPA (2.5 stars out of 5)

From Traditional Scottish Ales, Stirling, Scotland. Bought by Stephen then carried back to Houston by Patricia and I after our visit to the UK two weeks ago. Drunk from the bottle in our room at the Towne Place Suites Hotel in Las Colinas, near Dallas, TX at 1145 pm after arriving for one nights stay before I use my Christmas present from Patricia and drive a NASCAR race car tomorrow at Texas Motor Speedway.

The bottle says "Organic ruby red beer, full malty flavor and light hoppy aftertaste. Created in Scotland using pure Scottish water, organically grown malted barley, organically grown whole hops and brewers yeast. 4%ABV"

Pleasant enough generic sort of taste with a slightly bitter aftertaste that left a less than pleasant taste behind
