| Red ales largely disappeared from Canadian brewing while the pendulum of brewery contraction was in full swing. Then, during the 1980's, people's tastes swung back towards these invigorating malty ales. |
| Since the Canadian breweries never ceased brewing beers fermented with (often ancient) strains of ale yeast, this beer style was a natural fit. Brewers large and small jumped back into the brewing of red ales.. |
| The range of Canadian red ale flavours cross the spectrum of English and Celtic brewing traditions; some with the dark malt smokiness of Irish ales and some with caramel malt focus, but all immensely drinkable. |
| North American style ales are typically quite drinkable and, building on this, the red ales display an upweighted specialty malt impact and crisp hoppiness. |
| This Canadian strong red ale shows a smooth maltiness up front, with a rich alcohol building up to a fine hop afterbitter - a great pub pint. |
