Iron Maiden Announce Limited Edition Trooper Red 'N' Black Beer
. The beer, designed once again by Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson along with Robinsons' Head Brewer Martyn Weeks, takes its inspiration from a very early Robinsons recipe which was first brewed in the 1850's; a time when porter style beer was becoming increasingly popular in Britain. "I like tasting outside the box," explains Dickinson. "Stouts and porters were virgin territory for me so I just went by feel. Martyn and I hope we have created a new take on a classic beer and one which I hope will tickle the taste buds of ale fans in a pleasantly unexpected way." At 6.8% in bottle or 5.8% ABV in cask, Trooper Red 'N' Black is the strongest beer in the range to date. The porter takes it name from both the colour of the beer - which glows red when held up to light - and the song "The Red And The Black" from Iron Maiden's 2015 album "The Book Of Souls." The drink uses a blend of chocolate and crystal malts which help give the beer a roasted malt and caramel backbone, alongside hints of both liquorice and honey.
