HALIFAX, NS – Propeller Brewing has announced the addition of a new beer to it’s rotating seasonal line-up that is a fitting choice for a mid-March release.
Propeller Irish Red is a 5% abv ale that is described as “a tribute to the classic red ales of Ireland.”. Arriving just in time for St. Patrick’s Day, it has the following tasting notes:
Propeller Irish Red is a full-bodied yet refreshing ale with a complex malt aroma and character. Pale, Crystal, Roasted and Melanoidin malts give this brew its dark ruby red appearance and complex flavours. Willamatte hops balance the malt flavours with a subtle touch of woody hop character.
Propeller Irish Red will be officially launched tomorrow (Thursday March 13th) and will be available in 650 ml bottles at private liquor stores in Nova Scotia, in bottles and growlers at both Propeller retail locations, and on draught at select pubs and restaurants while quantities last.

- Greg C. is drinking a Barn Owl (No. 18) by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinGood balance of tart passionfruit & mildly funky sour ale, with supporting notes of oak, lemon, stonefruit & pineapple. Sharp & satisfying.
- Greg C. is drinking a Social Parade DDH IPA by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingOh, that’s dank. And delicious. Lotsa grapefruit, some ripe peach, hint of spruce. Drinks dangerously quickly for the abv.
- Greg C. is drinking a Sitting Pretty APA by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingDelivers the dominant citrus promised in the description, along with some pine and a peppery backnote, perhaps from the rye.
- Greg C. is drinking a Raspberry Lemon Rosemary Kennel Sour by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingStarts with raspberry, with lemon coming through in the middle, and rosemary sitting nicely in the finish. Super summer beverage.
- Greg C. is drinking a Li'l Hobo Hefeweizen by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingNot as hazy as I expect from the style - it’s more Kristall than Hefe - but the banana & clove notes are there, along with a bit of lemon.
