Strawberry Shortcake Red Ale - Coming Soon!
Just down the road from the brewery, the fields of Ferris Groves grow strawberries known for their bright sweetness and just-picked flavor. Strawberry Shortcake Red Ale was inspired by that tradition, brewed with fresh local strawberries and real vanilla bean over a smooth red ale base. Soft caramel malt brings everything together, creating a beer that captures the spirit of classic strawberry shortcake.
