The Durham Brewery Evensong Traditional Ruby Ale - Beer Review

Evensong from The Durham Brewery is one of the beers we purchased when we visited the brewery, and like the other ones we've tasted, it was delicious.

Evensong Ruby Ale pours into the glass a beautiful jewel red colour. It's made with a grist of five different malts, combined with Challenger, Goldings, and Fuggles hops.
The aroma is mouthwateringly fruity, on the palate there are pleasant malty flavours, and it tastes of toffee and dried fruits, with a decent medium bitter finish. 5%.
Evensong is a very good ale indeed.

From the label -
Five different malts including crystal and amber make a rich cherry/toffee flavour. Earthy Fuggles and Goldings hops combine in a smooth English character with hints of kiwifruit and toffee.
