RateBeer.com -- Correct Kentucky AleKentucky AleDescription: Kentucky Ale is a marriage between two classic beer styles,
Irish Red Ale and English Pale Ale. The Kentucky Ale
mashing program uses:
• the finest 2-row imported Harrington malt,
• select caramel malt varieties grown both
domestically and abroad,
• a pinch of wheat malt for a smooth, creamy taste.
Varieties of the English hops East Kent Goldings and Fuggles
impart a spicy yet soft, floral aroma without a harsh, bitter
aftertaste. These ale hops are used to balance the sweetness of the malt and are an important flavor
component of Kentucky Ale.
Light copper in color, the unique body and character of
Kentucky Ale is heavily influenced by the water, drawn from
aquifers in the limestone underlying the Bluegrass Region of Kentucky. Brewer: Lexington Brewing Co. (Alltech) Style: Amber Ale Alcohol Content: 4.5% Seasonal: No
