Writer's Red? 14 years 7 months ago #1

I went to The Gingerman yesterday and there was a 'Writer's Red' ale on tap. I asked if it was the Rebel Red from Franciscan Well and the barman answered: ''Yes, it is from Franciscan Well but it is called Writer`s Red''. <!-- s:shock: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked" /><!-- s:shock: -->

Is it a different version of the Rebel or what?

Nope. It is the Rebel Red. They just rebranded it. Keg labels still read "Rebel Red". <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

Can't be having us Dubs drink a beer from Cork called Rebel Red. I'll stick to my Castle Red in the B&C thank you very much.

Although a pint of Rebel Red in Paddy Cullen's before a Leinster game is always good.

Thanks Paudie. Nice ale, by the way. I am going to the Beamish Folk Festival (for the music not the stout) this weekend, will certainly visit the FW pub!

'Castle Red'??? Well, better than 'Red Bull',anyway... <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

If you can get a pint bottle of Beamish its not too bad when nothing else is available. I haven't seen one for a while though <!-- s:cry: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cry.gif" alt=":cry:" title="Crying or Very sad" /><!-- s:cry: -->

Well if you're looking for it in the Real City you can get it in An Spáilpín Fanac and the Sin é. I know those two are definatly taking part in the festival.
