Named after our first daughter who was born on the 4th of July, 2006, Addison's Firecracker Red is an Irish Red Ale with a hint of raspberry. Like our DCM, ESB and Quincy's Winter Warmer it is a British style ale so it tends to be more balanced (meaning that we try to balance the malt with the hops). Conversely, West Coast Pale Ales have a much stronger hop flavor. As our strawberry-blond daughter gets older, she gets a bit crazier so we try to do the same with the beer. We brew this one three times a year but serve it mostly around the Summer time to celebrate Addison's birthday. A.B.V. 4-5% (depending on brew)
