This fine pale ale has been brewed in the great British tradition using the finest two-row malted barley.
ICONOGRAPHY * As Bass Pale Ale's popularity grew, unscrupulous imitators tried to pass off inferior products as Bass by copying the unique red triangle logo. In 1875, concerned for the reputation of their beloved brew, Bass brewers applied for and were granted England's first registered trademark.

Wisconsin Belgian Red
Wisconsin Ale Brewed with Cherries
New Glarus Brewing Co.
New Glarus, WI

Label offerings:
You hold the marriage of wine and beer. Belgian Red is a tapestry of flavor. This ale is brewed with whole Montmorency Cherries, Wisconsin farmed wheat and Belgian roasted barleys, balanced by hops we aged in our brewery one full year, and then aged in oak vats.

Over a pound of Door County Cherries in every bottle makes this ale uniquely "Wisconsin." So unique, in fact, that we applied for a patent. Expect this ale to be ruby red, with a medium body that is highly carbonated and intense with cherry flavor and bouquet. Serve your friends Belgian Red in a brandy snifter or champagne flute and toast life with ale from the land of Wisconsin.
