Year Round
Red Trolley Ale
Red Trolley Ale sets the standard for Irish Reds. Originally brewed as our first holiday ale, this little trolley that could has blossomed into one of the most award-winning beers of all time. Three decades (and counting) later, each batch is still brewed with a half-ton of caramelized malts for a deep copper color, rich toffee aroma, and hints of raisins and currants. There’s no need to wait for the holidays. You can ride this trolley all year long.
Our love for the aural arts comes alive with “A Red Trolley Show”, a series of impromptu performances for unexpected travelers aboard the MTS Trolley. The award-winning series is a partnership between Karl Strauss and Rowlbertos Media, featuring local acts as well as international touring bands.
Below you’ll find a few of our favorite episodes and artists but there’s a ton more over on the Red Trolley Show YouTube page. Subscribe for the latest episodes and updates.
