Jackalope Rompo Red Ale Canned

Jackalope Rompo Red Ale, the Nashville, Tennessee’s spin on an Irish red ale, has just found a new home in 12oz cans. The brewery tapped Toucan Mobile Canning for the packaging venture.

Rompo is a twist on an Irish Red, using classic earthy UK hops and caramel malts. We gave it our own Tennessee take by adding flaked rye to the mash. Rompo is a very smooth drinking brew with notes of fruit and caramel, while the rye contributes a spicy and clean finish.

Jackalope Rompo Red Ale joins Thunder Ann Pale Ale in cans.

Style: Red Ale
