2022 RU55

We're happy to release RU55 Batch 9! RU55 is our barrel-aged Flanders-style red ale. About two years ago we brewed a wort with pilsner and caramel malt and barrel aged it. After about 24 months maturation, we blended and naturally conditioned. We like to keep our barrel-aged blends nice, soft, and mellow, which is what we did for RU55 Batch 9. Smooth and mellow with a nice dark fruit, caramel, leathery character, and a gorgeous copper/red color is what time, patience, and blending created. We're happy to have this JK original back! 6.7% abv.

Head to the brewery to get a glass or purchase bottles to go (750ml/$18) onsite in the Jester King shop. Also available to-go here. We have about 750 bottles available. 11 bottle limit per person. Shipping/delivery illegal in Texas.
