Bass Pale Ale

Brewed by Samlesbury (InBev UK)

Preston, England

Serve in English pint

Tres belle couleur orange cuivrée, peu de mousse mais énormément de gout. Impossible de ne pas aimer ce classique Anglais. Pas trop bitter, pas trop houblonné, les plus fins y verront une petite finale caramélisé. Excellent!!!

Not too bad. Nice hops. Nothing too remarkable to mention. Seemed a bit dark in color to me.

Clear, gold appearance with a thick white head. Aroma is nicely balanced of hops, malts and yeast. Flavor is definitely good. Palate is smooth and warm bodied with a nice bitter finish. Lovely beer.

Classic beer

On tap at 99 Bottles in Santa Cruz. Light caramel color with a creamy tan head that leaves gobs of lacing. Aroma is modest, with overripe dark fruits and toasted malt. Flavor is very similar. Light and tart dark fruits, sweetbread malt, earthy English hops. Mouthfeel is smooth and luscious but this comes at the expense of adequate carbonation. Also the flavor is not robust enough to match the body. Decent and drinkable beer, but nothing spectacular.

Nice copper color with a thin tan head. Slight metallic taste at first then the hops and malt took over. Not too bad overall.

From "Hall of Fame Cafe" on the edge of Old Louisville. 20 oz. draft. I was pleasantly surprised by the nice flavor of this brew. Subtle citrus flavors, very drinkable. I would certainly buy this one again, usually the better option at a restaurant with a sub-par draft list.

Bottle, at a English restaurant in Haarlem, the Netherlands. Malty with citrus tastes. Nice head, good taste.
