Redoak Organic Pale Ale

I read somewhere that many brewers and wine makers used to shy away from using the label "organic" for some reason noted inferior quality. I think that practice has changed along with the public perception. Again, I think, we, as drinkers tend to have the perception that anything made with certified organic ingredients is more "pure" and "less messed with".

As one of the few deliberately labelled Organic beers available in this country, Redoak Organic Pale Ale approaches "Ale Perfection"

There is nothing I like better in an ale than a perfect balance between a slight amount of fruit and the bitterness of the hops. This beer has it. The fruit is subtle, but there, the hops slightly, but perfectly bitter.

The thought occurred to me, to try it at cellar temperature (10C) rather than straight out of the 'fridge. Even better than ice cold. In this case, it took about 10 minutes out of the 'fridge to creep up to 10C.

Drink a lot of it with no accompaniments.
