Red Snapper Special Bitter
Style: Roasted Amber Ale
Strength: 4.9% (ABV)
IBUs: 30
Body: medium
Availability: Year-round, 24-12 oz bottles, 1/2 barrels
Food Pairings: Hamburgers, pizza, nachos, spaghetti & meatballs
Tasting Notes: A deep reddish brew with medium body and carbonation. This toasty, malty, and dry pale ale has a depth of hop taste and acidity in the palate and finish.
This unique recipe combines the rich malty character of an Amber Ale, the crisp hops of an American Pale Ale and the roasty, nutty flavors of an English Brown.
So the Red Snapper isn’t your ordinary Amber Ale. Sure, we use lots of tangy cascade hops for a refreshing bite, but we also use roasted malts for a dry, toasted character that has made Red Snapper one of our most popular beers for nearly a dozen years.
The Red Snapper recipe was conceived as a kitchen homebrew recipe in our house on Oak Street long before it became commercially available. It was named after good friend and fellow ultimate Frisbee player Don “Red Snapper” Staub. Red Snapper was first released to much approval at the 1992 Poultry Days Chicken Festival and Frisbee Tournament in Versailes Ohio where our co-ed team "Breasts and Thighs" competes to this day.
