Our new Specialty #3 is the English Old Ale. This style of beer is a Strong/Old ale. It originated in England in days of old. It is intended to be a very big, malty, and hoppy ale. Notice the aroma of the beer. It has a complex and fruity nose with noticeable maltiness. As you sip this beer, you will immediately pick up the malty body. As the beer flavors develop in your mouth, you will become aware of the full hop flavor and a pleasant warming effect. The warming effect comes from the high alcohol content. When the beer finishes, you will get a hop bitterness which is nearly overpowered by the big maltiness. I hope you enjoy.
Cheers,

Sample at the brewpub. Rich amber color with a thin beige head and sheets of lacing. Aroma of earthy malts and a pinch of hops. Medium body with a sweet flavor profile of malt and caramel, as well as a good amount of hops to balance. The finish is dry and hoppy. Alcohol shows up a little on the back end too. All in all this is decent.
