Hermitage Villa Street Red

Villa Street Red pours a deep copper to red color with ample foam in the glass. The aroma is immediately hoppy, with notes of pine and citrus and undertones of sweet caramel malt. The hop character continues strongly into the flavor with a classic west coast style of resinous pine and subtle grassiness, with hints of grapefruit citrus brightening things up. The finish is moderately dry for the style, but the sweet malt lingers on the palate with just a trace of hop deliciousness.
Villa Street Red Ale is named for the street our sister brewery, Tied House, sits on. We think this ale pays a good tribute to the rich brewing tradition of Tied House.
