Subject: accessing data in a ruby array

I have this array. I want to access the stuff in the hashes.

i can loop through them all and get the individual hashes but i cannot
access the data.

products.each.do |product|
     product[1]
     #this gives me the hash
     #product[1].id and product[1][:id] does not work
end

How do i access the name and description and rateplans inside this
structure.

Thanks in advance!

products => ["prod0", {"id"=>"4028e6963457a2a001345934b93633e4",
"name"=>"Product 1", "description"=>"This is a cool product with 4 rate
plans of different frequencies",
