Hogan Sampling		22 Feb 2025	What better choice than a ruby ale to accompany a "Ruby Murray". This Newcastle Upon Tyne beer had good head and lacing. It was fruity and ever so spicy on the first hit and was primed to do battle with the spices in the curry. A dry and not sweet mouthfeel pervaded and with a maltiness lingering.
