Ommegang Game Of Thrones – Fire And Blood Red Ale

The latest Ommegang Game of Thrones inspired beer is an American Amber/Red Ale brewed with ancho chili. Fire And Blood Red Ale is a very tasty and well crafted red ale with a bit of Belgian influence, it’s rich and malty and a bit on the sweeter side. The yeast seems a bit fruity with bits of banana coming out. There is also a solid spiciness to the beer, black pepper and chili pepper flesh add balance where the hops normally would. They beer lacks the fire though, the ancho chili peppers add flavor as it warms but no significant heat. An enjoyable beer, and I guess this would be a must try if you’re really into the show.
