Ft Collins Retro Red Becomes Red Banshee

Ft Collins Brewing has changed the name/label of their Retro Red to “Red Banshee” in 2011.

Commercial Description:
2011 marks the return of a Ft Collins legend.  The longtime favorite of FCB’s grandparent brewery has been undercover as Retro Red for the last four years making the rebrand more of a reveal.  Retro Red enthusiasts need not fear as the recipe  will remain the same tempting combination of crystal and wheat malts for an impeccable flavor punctuated by the piquantly spicy character of Willamette and Tettnanger hops.

Style: Red Ale

Taste Expectations: Caramel malt profile.  Toasty.  Biscuits. Light fruity hops.

Availability: 12oz/6pks.  Draft.

5.2% ABV
